I went down and asked him if he planned on talking to the kids today.
Why did you do this, what part of detach NC is this. Its R talk. So the resulting actions by him do not surprise me at all. Do you see that?
I guess the bright side of this is you know where you stand.
You need to rethink what you are doing. If you want to get D then react to everything that H says, act like you care. That you want him to stay married etc. etc. etc.
You have to remember this is all counterintuitive.
