I think what everyone has said here makes sense. You told him that you are not going to move in, and he hang up on you....you left a message in his car, and you are scared to call him....you also say that he thinks he is punishing you by not calling you. What I see here is a man who is selfish. He will probably not call you soon. But, if you don't call him, you will have done one thing...dis-empower him and his tactics. My advice is; don't call him....wait, I know it hurts, but just wait. He is most likely going to call you before the middle of this week because if you don't call, he will grow impatient and nervous. This guy seems to be a typical attention seeker, based on what you have said about him. Therefore silence will kill him....especially when he thinks that the intended pain on you by his silence is not working.

The more you call him or leave messages, the more you feet his ego and the more he will bask in the glory of being sort after. So just keep cool, and wait for him to call, then tell him how uncomfortable you are about the whole thing, and how you feel you made a mistake. Apeal to his emotions by asking him if he wanted you to be happy, wouldn't he take a minute to think about your emotional state now? You go on to suggest the divorce thing. He will probably get mad, yell at you, but finally he will beg you not to. You will probably see his weaker side....and he might go on his knees to beg you not to. But remember, DO NOT let your emotions reign in this, but let rationality take charge and stand firm. Good luck!

What? He married a woman expecting her to move in with him. That's not even slightly selfish - it's normal. This person got married to a man she didn't want to marry and then decided that she wouldn't go through with being married. That's not so much selfish as terrible judgment, but still, the guy doesn't deserve to be called 'selfish'!!! That she didn't bother to let him know that she really didn't want to marry him or live with him ever is a huge problem and is entirely her fault. The poor guy must be wondering WTF did she marry him for if she didn't want to!

Good for you! I'm really glad that you told him you're not moving in. Consider yourself lucky that he's leaving you alone right now and not doing anything to harrass you. Call a lawyer and find out what steps you should take. You never did say whether you could get it annulled or not? I would look into that. It was so recent, maybe there's a way other than divorce to just dissolve the marriage.

Whatever the rights and wrongs of this are, the fact remains that to move in with him and continue the marriage would be a disaster. Go see a lawyer and cut your losses.
