Well, it took my W 3 days to turn on her phone and read my text.
To refresh everyone's memory, this is exactly what I sent her Monday:
HiYa' W. I just wanted to check in with you, and ask how the follow-up doctor's visit went? I thought about you on that day. Hope you are doing better.
As I've been on this forum tonight, I heard my phone (in another room) receive a text. That was about 30 minutes ago. I didn't want to lose my momentum on this forum, so I kept posting.
Guess what? The text was from my W. Here it is exactly:
Bob - you need to call AT&T and pay the rest of the bill.
I do not know what to make of this. How hardened could a person's heart become? I know I should have had no expectations. But she didn't say anything about my question/nice comment. It's as if I never sent it. She does this so frequently, responds to a totally different subject. I find it so hurtful and manipulative.
This is how she has been since she left 6 months ago to live with her controlling Mom. I'm not being mean--it's true. My W used to say it about her, so did my W's siblings. The reason I bring up her Mom is my W is getting more and more emotionally distant as the text reply would indicate. My W can think for herself but she is heavily influenced by her Mom, be it positively or negatively.
Sandi, or any former WWs that might be reading this, what do you make of such behavior? Of course, all are welcome to respond! I need all the advcie I can get. I just think a former WW might have some insight into why my W acts like this. Maybe she truly is over me and has moved on.
I supppsoe she could be testing me. Trying to bait me into an argument. I don't want to give up on her or our M. But it's things like this that really start to make me wonder why I still love her so much.
Someone, please help!
Thank you.
Bob
