Dear Yogagal,
I hope you enjoyed your yoga workshop.
You mention that you're having a "time-out" now, and am I right in assuming it's a result of an argument you guys had?
There's something about the "he initiates contact when he is ready" bit that sticks in my craw a little. And I can't shake the feeling that you're not okay with that either--otherwise why would you post? There's taking time to calm down after an argument, and then there's punishing someone with a silent treatment--is he doing the former or the latter? Because if it's the latter, that's just mean.
I assume you two aren't living together? It sounds like you're doing great taking care of yourself and trying not to fret over Mr. Me-Time. You know that Yeats poem: "She bid me take love easy..." Good advice, but easier said than done!
I hope you enjoy surfing about here.
