Relationship He Texted Me

[Grasshoppa]

well I am feeling a little down this morning but staying with positive thoughts. Yesterday day I sent him my last text. @Newtoptsd helped me word it. After I sent that text.

"I'm not sure if these messages or phone calls are something you're happy to receive so for now I will stop sending them for a bit, please reach out when you're ready, I'm always here for you and please know I care.

Your Grasshoppa"

He Reply's back with

"ok baby I will call you later today ok"

I simply sent a reply

"ok baby"

Well let's just say I was not even looking for him to call or text back. It did put a smile on my face that he replied, but at the same time I got sad this morning because of no call or text. So I am going to leave him alone for a bit like I stated. Hurts like hell but I have to stay positive right now.

Wooooo I know you're sad but this is honestly a positive and the whole 'I will call you later' is something my SO says ALL the time, but low and behold his memory is diabolical so I don't take that to heart. Does your SO have memory problems? I think it's a common problem with PTSD, I know my friend really has a lot of trouble remembering things, usually short term. Or it may be a male thing as he seems to remember the stuff I don't want him to remember ;)

Sometimes he does call, but most of the time he is dealing with too much going on in his head to remember to call me, and that's ok, I try not to let it bother me.

I think your text may have prompted him to give you just a little bit of reassurance. I'm taking a guess that as soon as we give them the space and withdraw slightly that's when they feel they can come out of their shell bit by bit. Keep it up, you're doing great :):hug:
