You do have a way of asking to the point questions, don't you :-) (and I appreciate it).
Most of our day to day interaction is about general practical things, talking about the kids is a subject that goes pretty well.
I guess I would consider him rather childish, and if I had to deal with this person on a day-to-day basis, I would try to avoid confronting him, since his responses can be somewhat unpredictable.

I was just about to come and write a brief update, just so you know I haven't completely given up. H was in a good mood this morning, I made some joke about the rain (again!!!). I asked him if he was getting up. H said he thought he would stay in bed.
I asked him why? H said, 'because I can'. I said it would be nice if we could have some family time, H accused me of turning my simple question into something more, I agreed that that's what it sounded like and stopped. This was kinda light friendly banter. So I continued...hey, as long as I've already blown this conversation, can I ask you a question?
H kind of snickered and said go ahead. I asked 'Does your not having sex with me have anything to do with me not wanting to have any more kids?' (this has been bugging me, actually, after I thought about it, I suspected at one point H was trying to honor my Catholic tradition by not ML when we weren't having kids)
H laughed, and gave me a hug. The convo ended there, and I went downstairs with the kids.
I'm not going to start analyzing, just going to go about my business...
