Had IC today- he called me out on my avoidance behavior, and pointed out H is avoider, too. Interesting point he had: avoiders don't knowhow/are scared to bring up difficult conversations (hence the avoiding). IC sees H's calling the house "my house" despite the fact I have asked him not to as a way to force a conversation-either subconsciously or not. A lot more was said about the subject, and I think he's right. Looking back, all of our arguments have stemmed off of similar behavior...interesting. I have stopped reacting to those comments, but IC thinks that would be a great way for me to jump start a conversation in the future. We can't keep on walking circles around each other. Someone has to make a move at some point, it will undoubtedly be me.

Also, H is MIA. He always shows up on Monday to take care of the dogs. Today He did not. I texted him to ask about his schedule this week (he's supposed to take D12 out for dinner and help me with yard work). ...no answer. Hmmmmmmm...
