Now he has moved on to sending an email, again the same mundane question. I have no idea what to do, or how to respond - he still has not tried to call. I feel like he is just trying to provoke me into a response so that he can then launch into the divorce conversation. I feel so unprepared, any advice would help please!
He might be trying to provoke you.
Or he is unsure of your lack of response and is confused.
You can write out your responses here and someone can critique them before you send them.
Remember to follow the 48 hour rule before you respond. IE - wait 48 hours so you will also get a chance to hear what others here have to say.
