I have some questions for anyone that would like to pitch in.

Has anyone ever had a problem saying acknowledging the fact they've been thanked by someone by not being able to say "your welcome", or "no problem", or "sure thing"?.

Issues have arisen with D9. XH has helped. I've thanked him several times. He won't acknowledge it. I've also asked him 2 times if he's got some CD's and our leaf blower and he's not given me a response about that, but will talk about D9.

He contacts me stating he doens't know what to do with D9 cause she's sick, and when I start talking to him about issues she has, he barely has a response and acts like he has no clue or interest in trying to work with me to problem solve.

Is this me having too many expectations? Or is this him not having any clue and not being able to articulate it? Or is this him being aloof, and superficially playing the part of a concerned parent, but really not that concerned? Passive aggressive? I dont see why he won't answer my question about those cd's and leaf blower? That's just stupid. Either he has it or he doesn't, what's the big deal with that?

Mature me needs to let this go. But stubborn me wants to say " hey I've asked you two times about those items. Do you have them or not?"
