Misunderstood my ISTJ husband’s silence completely
I’ve been feeling anxious lately because for weeks, my ISTJ husband has seemed unusually distant and preoccupied. Less talkative, always busy on his phone/laptop, and not very emotionally reassuring.
This morning, he sent me a full itinerary. Turns out he was busy planning a trip for us the entire time. He said he didn’t want to say anything until he sorted out the logistic and budget.
The entire time I was internally SPIRALLING…convincing myself something was wrong between us. Even after 20+ years of marriage I still get blindsided sometimes.
