Purg - I am sorry he didn't ackknowledge you BD. Did you at least have a good time with your kids?
I agree with One11. My H was extremely selfish when he left home and even when he initially deployed. He called me from the base to say goodbye a few minutes before boarding. I was livid! We hadn't talk about the important things (and I wasn't talking about our M). There was no talk about who was going to pay the bills while he was away, military benefit information, will information - things that you normally discuss when a family member is being deployed. I wanted to discuss these things but he never answered my calls or emails. It wasn't until he was in Afghanistan for 5 months before he started calling and emailing me. I was dark so, I wasn't accepting any calls or responding to his email for 2 months after that.
Take care of yourself.
