Tumbling I have been reading your sitch for a bit. I wanted to point something out though. You wrote "I don't think he will EVER make an excuse to call or see me." One of the things that gets me into trouble every single time is thinking I KNOW how my H is going to react. In fact, it was one of the things we got into it about yesterday. I said, you were going to......... to him. It infuriated him. He said how do you know? You never give me a chance. In all honesty, his past behavior said I was right. However, he is also right in that I don't give him a chance. Maybe rather than assume you might give him a chance and really stop texting. My perception (as someone who does the VERY same thing) you do try to make excuses to text and talk to him. Stop. Make it your 180. Try it for 7 days. Surely you can do it for 7 days. No contact at all. I am willing to bet at some point in there he will be contacting you.
