Should I continue to remain dark until he contacts me? What if he doesn't contact me for months?
2 1/2 months for me since she moved out without any meaningful word from my W.
We had a brief text exchange after she moved out / gutted the house about her coming back into the house for more stuff - I was more polite than the event warranted.
There were a couple of texts after there was an explosion in the village - just FYI stuff
The last text was a slightly snarky "thanks for letting me know" after I changed our NetFlix password and let her know via text.
No responses at all to any emails (I think there's been 3). All three emails were probably not necessary and dealt with admin things (book-keeping, medical insurance) with one having some begging and chasing in it at the end of August.
The silence is deafening I know but to be honest other than "Please please please come home again" - which I've been assured would be a bad idea, there's not a lot that I actually want to / need to say to her even though I could come up with all sorts of seemingly important things to say.
So - yes - it may well be months.
Think honestly to yourself Coly23 - what is it that you would want to say to him that wouldn't be some sort of pursuit that may just chase him farther into the tunnel?
