He's doing the classic "distance/ pursuit" thing. He distances himself from you and if you don't pursue then he starts pursuing you for a temperature check. Please pick up Divorce Remedy right away and read it, it's a quick read and it'll give you the tools you need to deal with your situation. The begging/ pleading/ constant texting is the WRONG thing to do. You need to detach, work on GAL (getting a life) for yourself, give your husband time and space to sort through his thoughts. It's OK to reply if he texts you, but don't initiate any yourself. And keep all talk light and fluffy, don't bring up the relationship for now. Read the sticky thread at the top of this forum titled "Sandi2's 37 Rules", it'll give you some good basic DB tips while you're waiting for the book to arrive.

And last, don't give up hope! Your M can still be saved. There are many success stories around here including many marriages that were saved just when things seemed the darkest.

Good luck!
