Hi, Heidi!
Thanks for responding to my post! So far, we just talked that one time yesterday. I sent him a text at the end of the night last night to say thanks again for the help and goodnight (we used to say Good morning/Good night almost every day), but he did not respond to that. I’m strangely OK with that right now because I realize it’s going to take some time to get him back to feeling good about our relationship.
Anyway, at the end of our phone call yesterday, when I was apologizing for my stupid text message, he was amenable to listening to me talk about that, but he didn’t say anything concrete about it. He said a lot of uh-huhs (affirmatives), and “I understand”s. I don’t think he really wanted to talk about it. He is the type who doesn’t like to talk about “difficult” topics. He was also very insistent that I keep him in the loop about how the staining project is going. I think this is a good sign because it means he still wants to help me an still wants to hear from me. I will definitely be using these updates to get into his mind and heart again!
I’m planning on taking this slowly – getting back into his mind and heart slowly. I’m planning on buying James’s book, “The Relationship Rewrite Method.” I think it will give me some additional ideas on where to go from here.
I understand you’re a relationship coach – if I decided I want more help, how can I go about hiring you?

Update: Not that anyone has read this yet, but in case someone clicks on it in the future…
I went with Option #1 – and it WORKED!!! He called me within the hour!!!! Helped me with the problem by talking to me about it and 3-way calling an expert on it. I was able to apologize for my abrupt text – let him know that I didn’t really want to break it off with him. He insisted that I keep him posted on the project, which you KNOW I will! I can’t wait to use some of the strategies in the His Secret Obsession book to woo him back, now that the lines of communication are open again! Thank you so much!!!!
