Just posting this to show the remarkable immaturity that can manifest in this process.
A few days ago, h was texting me a bit. All normal stuff. Then a few hours later from when he sent it, I saw a picture he had sent me along with a joke. So I commented and also joked. He sent back a terse text saying he'd sent the picture 2 hours ago. So I said my cellular was off so I didn't receive it. (I have told him this before about needing cellular on to receive pictures.). He said "I know." But I regret explaining it. It was two hours and it was a silly picture. I won't explain again as it makes me feel like the Julia Roberts character in Sleeping with the Enemy.
Fast forward to today. At midday he sends a text asking if we all want to go to dinner as he is craving x and he sends a smiley face. Twenty minutes later? He sends me a nasty text saying: "no answer? OK. No problem. I will eat x here anyway."
He rescinded the invite because I didn't answer in 20 minutes! Guess I am supposed to sit like a chicken with my phone underneath my rump?
45 minutes later, after the first text, I said I was sorry we missed the boat on the invite and thanked him.
In other news he's all over the place. He's been cracking jokes sometimes, like his old self. But then he gets super cranky minutes later. He's pretty much always cheerful with the dog now. Lately he sometimes tells me places he has gone and things he has done. It's all small stuff but he's kept all this very hush hush for the last two years.
