He's Just Not That Into You

I think making room and pulling back will be good for you and will help you no matter what happens in the future. Just like me, you've gotten frustrated with your H's responses after all of the work that you've put in.

Exactly. I know he recognizes the work but he refuses to actually acknowledge it. I'm hoping we'll get there, maybe we won't...

H went out for a beer, said he'd be home an hour ago. Boys are in bed, and he's going out of town tomorrow so now won't see them until Thurs. It's sh!tty of him to do that to them. I'm not suspicious as I'm quite certain he is out with our old neighbor and they talk business all the time. Still and all, it's lame to say you'll be home at a certain time, then not show and not call/text. I have resisted the temptation to but in.

On the plus side, H did actually call me today (vs text) to tell me about this plan. And, I get the bed while he's gone. Wish it were going to be more than one night.
