He text me, ignoring our fight two days ago, telling me that he finally had a dream that didn't lead to a nightmare. He's been wanting to get rest, so I knew it was a good thing.

I was validating and said, "Yay! I'm sure that was wonderful. I'm happy for you!"

No reply.

I don't know why he does these things. Just validation I suppose.

If YOU don't change, things will stay the same

Maybe no reply because he had nothing he impulsively had to say. That fact that you might be expecting a reply wouldn't even be considered

Selfish really isn't the word, is it?

Thanks for the insight.
