I feel for you Bailey, particulary with the additional angst of having to maintain a long distance relationship.

I am going with instinct here - don't know if this applies to your man.

Most men faced with a problem want to find some way to fix the problem, hence your husbands interest in how everything works.

Because it didn't work the first time he is feeling removed from the process.

The only way to fix it is to keep talking about what's going on and how you feel.

All the best.
