Thanks for the replies, Blake. He really does lvoe and want to spend time with D. I wrote the aprt about him not seeing her all weekend on Monday morning, and by that afternoon he was trying to schedule time with her and said he shouldn't go 3 days without seeing her - but made it sound like my fault by adding in that he didn't get to see her Saturday like he had planned. Saturday he was at our house all day working on his car - D and I had church commitments and a baby shower. So by the time we made it home he was gone. So yeah, PARTLY my fault. But what about Sunday?!

It's not that I need to force him to spend time. I'm sorry your stitch is like that. Makes no sense to me. I hate going a day without seeing my D's smiling face.

I do think he is confused - but I just don't want him to think I've given up. I like your approach.

Would love to hear what some of the veterans think
