Well said Julia about stage 1 and stage 2. My primary objective was not to initiate contact because I thought he relied on me initiating. I was not out to ignore him or to create extra tension. Have to remember I still need his assistance with the kids so that I can have a life!
I can let it go and when he asks just tell him I was busy and forgot. Then i can ask directly what he wants.
Think I'll let it ride another day and see what happens.
