I am not saying this isn't correct info but you could still also implement an email policy. His minimalist is not your problem. If he absolutely NEEDED to get in touch with you. He would.

I hear you. But then the default would be calling me OR calling me at work. I'd just prefer the text as its much less invasive and easier to mute. Despite the impression I give here I do ignore a lot of texts. I never responded to the "happy valentines day".

You can still go NC other than business stuff. It requires you to set boundaries though which you struggle with (which is okay). Not just for him but for yourself.

Yes - that's what I meant to say. I'm only addressing business items if absolutely necessary. Where he would text commentary "this is a pain in the *(^#@" and I would validate his frustration by stating "yes, I can see that it is". I will not reply unless its a direct question that I need to answer to finish the business.

I'm fine and I will be fine.

Tuesday text conversations just threw me for a loop and right now I'm just angry - not so much at my XH. I'm just really angry at someone else. I just need to sit with my feelings for a bit, process and find away to let that anger go. I know that their behavior is a reflection of who they truly are and nothing at all to do with me at this point.

Thanks for all your input!!!!
