Yep. Did it, done it. You're testing him. Inside you know it's kind of artificial, it's silly, feels funny, and is kind of a fake thing cause you don't really mean it although you may be like me and would rather just see the whole thing blow up in your face than deal with your S being distance, wondering who he's thinking about, etc., but you're testing him. I did the same thing.
You're testing him because you want him to pass the test and tell you he doesn't want her he wants you. That's what you want to hear, and you're trying to pry it out of him and protect yourself at the same time because you and I both know you don't want him to go anywhere.
So quit it It creates a bad dynamic for you cause you're going to need to push him more and more to get what you think you want. He'll humor you for a little while, then he'll say to himself...well, if she's going to rip me a new one no matter what I do, then what's the point?
