Alright, well, clockwork.

XH started teaching again this morning, and just a few minutes ago, his planning period started, where he's alone in his classroom and on a different floor than OW.

I got an email, titled "Happy Belated Holidays."

Here's the text:

"Just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year but I didn't want to send it over the actually holidays for fear of seeming insensetive. However, I also thought it seemed silly not to send you a holiday greeting because I do truly wish you the best.

I hope you had a good Christmas and New Year with family and friends. I guess you'll be starting back to work soon. I hope you enjoy the change of pace.

Take care,

XH"

Thoughts, anyone? Recall that I pointed out to him before that he had a pattern of emailing me the minute his planning period started and she wasn't around, and it was obvious that he was hiding communication from her.

I don't even know what course of action to take anymore. To not respond he'll take as I'm angry or petty and that demonizes me more. If I do respond and I'm not "me" which is a little chatty, it still comes off as like I'm mad. If I am chatty, it opens the door again for him to talk to me about work, and we know how that ends up.

So confused. PS. No one complimented his pic of him and OW.
