yes whatnow I agree.. he's taking temperature since you arne't pursuing...

The idea is to get HIM to pick up the chase again.. but as long as you call him back and give him the temperature of your relationship without him having to earn it... as long as you hand feed him his cake so he can go on his merry way, you aren't gonig to see much change in him.

If you want to see him change, you have to change... you are gradually lessening the calls... you will gradually see a change in him too... the more you cut him out, the more drastic his changes will come along.

It takes a LOT of time, and as long as you are looking over your shoulder at him, he isn't going to budge much at all.

If all he wanted to know was a shoe size he could have texted that.. he CALLED for a REASON.. he did CALL and hear your VOICE did he not?

He did complain about something and NOT JUST cover shoe size yes?

The shoe size like whatnow suggests sounds like a blatant excuse to break protection to me.
