Yay! I had wondered if your not muting him was more a mental hang-up or a technical one. Muting their texts was a step forward for me. It didn't stop me from seeing their texts 3-4hrs later (can you really wait 1-2 days?!), but it meant I didn't get a "ding" when I was occupied by pleasant things like a run or watching a movie or napping. Which is helpful if your goal is to detach (because you love you, and them).
