My hunch though, is that he is "waiting" for my old newmama self to return and he doesn't buy the 180s I am putting in place.
I am proud of myself for staying dim. When I am angry it is easy. When I am sad or happy it is hard...because if I am in a good mood I want to be chatty with WH when I see him.
I think this quote worked, yay!
It is possible he doesn't buy the 180s! Keep working at it a little longer to see if anything changes when he does start to think this could be permanent.
(Because really, if you get remarried, your new H would probably not want you to be all chatty with your ex. So this is giving WH a taste of that!)
And I ditto that anger makes it easier. It's a fine line to walk, just very fine.
