Please tell me how I should handle communication under these circumstance, so as to not completely close the door.
The last communication between us was a one word text from her on Easter that said "Easter". Both of us can be headstrong. Are we now in the pattern of seeing who will flinch and communicate first? Should I remain dark and let her initiate any communication?
We have no children together and bills have all been separated. The only required interaction between us will be signing tax return and each paying our half of the bill by next Wednesday, and ongoing divorce negotiations. Actually, I have hired a lawyer and I'm sure she will now do the same. Her lack of communication coincides with her getting letter from my lawyer. She had not wanted to get lawyers involved. I was initially agreeable to that, but I did not agree with her terms. I sent her an email a few weeks ago asking her to negotiate with me, but she did not, hence the hiring of a lawyer.
I suspect that this hiring will be the final nail in our relationship's coffin, although that's not what I want.
