I'm sorry that your husband's response to your emotions is to withdraw, but I am hoping that he is able to communicate with you in the near future about his thoughts and feelings as well.
Marriage counseling could help you each find more appropriate and healthy ways of communicating concerns with each other, as writing an email is not a healthy way to communicate, and neither is ignoring, leaving and withdrawing. Sometimes it just takes a third person to help guide us into healthier and productive ways to communicate our feelings. (I am speaking from experience, as my husband and I were also not using "fair fighting" techniques, and the counselor helped us tremendously learn how to communicate the not-so-easy topics in our marriage).
