Sorry Sunny. I don't know your H but to me this sounds more dense than disrespectful.

I might be a bit dense too. I'm not sure I would've thought to ask for a text confirming you were safe. It might not even dawn on me that there was a risk, I might just take it for granted you'd be fine the same way if you told me you were going to the grocery store. And- if it did occur to me to ask to make sure you were ok, I could see getting the text and not responding just because- hey, I wasn't the one driving anywhere, you weren't worried about me.

I'm not sure, I haven't been in that exact spot. But I certainly have failed to live up to other people's ideas of what is civil behavior unintentionally.

Now if your H treated you differently during the M and is only now acting this way, then I'd say he's acting strange. But if this is the way he's always been I don't think it's because he's trying to be disrespectful, maybe he's just a dumb guy sometimes.

Point is unvoiced expectations and mindreading don't make anything better. But you know this, and you're doing the right thing by continuing to "phase him out" like Ross's English accent in that Friends episode...
