Hi Lana,

I have read through your posts. What I read in them is your continued hope that your husband will respond in ways that most would consider normal. Unfortunately that is not going to happen right now if ever. My ex did not ever reach out to me until about 4 months after the divorce and her having to face all that she had chosen. We talked and she told me one specific thing that all of us in this situation should know. She told me that she has learned that she cannot trust what her brain was telling her. Keep this in mind every time you expect him to react in a normal fashion and he reacts in another.

My suggestion is to only contact him when it relates to your girls and only if its important. Let the girls contact him if they want to but be prepared to help them after to understand if he does or says something they need help understanding.

Your husband needs to reach the end of the journey he is on. You cannot be there to help unless he asks for it. You can only choose to change your journey.

Give him the room he needs. Give your daughters the support they need. Don't read too much into any time he does reach out to you or your daughters, but be ok that he did. When he communicates more then communicate, when he pulls back then you pull back. Appreciate the little things and don't expect more. Keep moving forward with your life and let him worry about his right now.
