So I think you copied and pasted this right out of the book.
I will try to simplify me question. You originally ignored her texts. She got mad and you told her you would communicate to her only by email. She threw a fit and you caved in and had a call. So right away that communicates to her you are not a man of your word and have weak to no boundaries. Does that bring you closer to your goal of reconciliation? If yes than I assume you are happy with the exchange. If no, than I assume that makes your STBXW happy because she does not want to reconcile right now and likely ever until something changes.
