I tried to validate as best I could without coming off as condescending.
He said that I accused him of cheating ... so after he left and took his ring off.. he did. That if I had to question him I had doubts and if I had doubts I didn't trust which is an accusation.
He went on to write that he sees I am trying to take pride in myself and using the treadclimber in earnest but I should have using it all along as I couldn't keep up with a smoker on the Diamond Head hike in Hawaii 4yr ago... (I made it.. I just went a little slower... I am older by him by 3yr and have much shorter legs than him.. I'm 5'2 and he is 6'.
He then stated he needed to get back to work but then followed up with another text - that the real *witch of it is that the last time I asked if he was sleeping with someone he wasn't.
So - he has noticed that I have been giving him more respect lately, that I am not knitting and that I am exercising... he is paying attention but then he is also not home this weekend and still wants to move into the other bedroom.
I wish I had not contacted him. It just got to me what my friend informed me of... I wasn't sleeping and I should have absolutely taken the route... when in doubt do nothing.
