Quote: H calls me every day...yes, every day! He hasn't done that for a very long time.
Hmmm, thats odd.. , because..not too long ago..
Quote: He said "we probably should give each other space for the first SEVERAL weeks and then get together & have a quality discussion.
Him calling you everyday sure doesn't sound like a guy that needs his space..LOL..I would continue to let him INITIATE all the contact as you have been, handle the conversations like you have been, ALWAYS act upbeat, and ever so often give the subtle IMPRESSION that this seperation remarkably seems to be doing WONDERS for you ... and ALWAYS be the first one to politely say you have to run or whatever you can do to HANG UP FIRST..keeps you in control of things rather than allowing him to always dictate...I'd also maybe let a few of his calls go unanswered just so he can't assume he can get a hold of you when its conducive for him..Of course you can call him back, but try and mix it up a little, you get the drift..
No R talk, No M talk outside of the kids, and just keep staying busy..
You are doing a PERFECT job under the circumstances..
