Third time's a charm, I hope.

No offense taken! I understand what you mean, and you're not the first or even the first hundredth to tell me so. I have gone through some therapy and plan on returning when my life calms down a little bit, but I do have it pretty well figured out in my head.

Basically it boils down that 18 year old me didn't really see any red flags, or the ones I do I shrugged off and chalked up to typical 21 year old guy behavior. As time went by and we spent more time together, I fell in love hard and fast. When he asked me to marry him, I knew his flaws and figured naturally as we got older, we would both grow up. Because yano, that's what people usually do! And I do truly love him, so over time while I have grown more bitter and intolerant, the loves been pretty unwavering. Add in an unhealthy dose of codependency on my end, and that hits the nail on the head of the when, where and why of my situation.

Today I'm at the point of being ready to throw in the towel and wanting to tell him so. I'm sick of being with someone who doesn't even care enough to respond to a cordial text. I think it's completely unfair that we've come to the conclusion of taking a separation now, but not discussing any details of it. I asked a simple yes or no question, can we be in limited contact during this?

Obviously the silence gave me my answer, but it makes his intentions and motives seem anything but sincere, and makes me feel like this is nefarious. For pete's sake, I gave him the option of saying no even!
