garfish99 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 This was a relationship that lasted 6 months. It was serious enough to sleep over 3 nights a week. The argument made it clear we're not compatable long term. He was pretty contemptuous, actually. Then he texted an apology. I accepted. We made some small talk but when I included an affectionate emoticon out of habit he wrote just,"good night". The next day when I was more awake, I apologized for my own behavior. But he seemed irritated with my explanation & made comments that made me realize he felt right to behave the way he did. So much for his apology. Ever since it has been just daily text greetings (mostly initiated by him) and nothing else. It has been "Morning. Good night. Morning. Sweet dreams. How are things? My [thing at work] went well, thanks. Goodnight. How are you feeling?" The few times we did engage in small talk, he spoke to me like a friend. No more words of affection, cutesy emoticons. Just "Morning." It used to be "Good morning gorgeous/beautiful/nickname for me" It's clear it's over. I was almost always the one who made the first move in discussing anything. Frankly I don't want to be bothered with being the first to start a discussion AGAIN especially when he essentially took back his apology and just pointed out what he thinks I do wrong. This morning was the first time he didn't send a morning greeting. I didn't either. Do I just stop replying to any texts he sends, if any? Or should I suck it up and put the dying relationship out of it's misery since he won't? What do I even say to him considering we've now spent a week speaking in text greetings?
