Mila, doesn't it strike you odd that your H wouldn't really give counseling a chance before and now that you're standing up for yourself he decides that the two of you need to go?
Why is it that he can't get it through his head that the reason you aren't communicating with him is not because you're having a difficult time talking to him, it's just that you don't want to? Wonder when/if he'll realize that carrying on with ow is the reason for this.
Being dark on him really has an effect, doesn't it?
