-sigh- From my previous post to you:

Quote:
99% of yours posts are H-focused. "He did X, Y and Z, how do I respond?" "H did this today, is that a good sign?" "He said this and I said that, did I do the right thing?" The bulk of your posts should be about YOU, what YOU are doing to recover from this, how YOU are GAL'ing, how YOU are becoming a spouse only a fool would leave. I am STILL reading "more of the same" behavior every time you post! You're still coming off as the same needy, desperate, clingy person that is hanging on H's every word and deed!


Personally I think your responses to H come off as flippant. So, it's "more of the same". What do you think would be a 180 on that? I would suggest that you be abundantly professional. Treat your H like you would a respected coworker. If he asks you if you did your job, then tell him in specific terms, not by throwing back "alls good". I've had plenty of people work for me over the years and I derive no comfort from fuzzy feel-good responses like that, and it sounds like your H doesn't either. So try something different.

It sounds like you narrowly averted an argument and you're patting yourself on the back for that. How about instead of narrowly averting an argument, you respond to H in such a way that he says "WOW, that was a fantastic exchange, she really has changed!!!" What can YOU do to make him think that?
