I have reflected on some of the things that got results from my H in this situation and here they are:

1. When he called me, I ended the conversation first.

2. When he came around I would ensure that the house smelled really good and I looked casual but well groomed. Spoke much softer than normal.

3. I definitely 'acted as if' my life was full and moving forward without him.

4. Did not give him as much eye contact as he likes. But when I did look in his eyes I did it flirtatiously.

5. Slowed my body language down - more controlled and no touchy, feely. Kept out of his space. Definitely no emotional outburst or tears. Oh no, not the tears again, I am out of here.

6. Never requested any assistance from him in anything. Caused him to offer.

7. When he expected me to do something, I would do the opposite. That got his attention.

8. Held back when he wanted a cuddle or any form of affection. Let him kiss my cheek instead of my lips.

9. Refused to see him when requested, let him pursue before I gave in, maybe three requests for one sighting of moi.

10. Posted his mail instead of handing it to him or calling him. He always asks why not call and I will pick it up.
