Thanks for checking in Giving...much appreciated.

I only got through Chapter 1 last night before I fell asleep. However, I think I may have made a mistake today. H texted me a bit ago and asked if I traded my car in yet-knowing there's no way I had. (We previously spoke about me needing a cheaper car payment if I am going to be on my own.) I texted him back and said no, I wanted to keep it. H asked how I was going to pay for it. I wrote back "like i am now...i still have HOPE" H has not responded. I am guessing I said the wrong thing. It's very hard knowing what I can/should say vs. what I shouldn't say. I am waiting for H to ask when I am moving out again. We originally talked about staying in the same house for 3 months and then I would have to move b/c I cannot afford the house payment. However, I have since decided I will not leave but have not told H that.

I have been keeping my distance. I do not nag, do not complain, do not ask things of H. I think it may be making a difference until he makes some snide comment like "this is the last time we will be eating here together" or like asking if I traded in the car. Is he seeing how far he can push me? God, this is confusing.
