Today I broke my rule of letting H initate all conversations, to my detriment. ARGH!
I had called him re. some kid stuff (urgent), which was fine. I had to call him about the same thing yesterday, and he had tried to initiate conversation, but I wasn't in the mood so didn't pursue it.
Today, the talk went fine, and he told me he's got a new job w/in the company. It's a lateral move, but more prestige and more opportunity for future career growth. I said, well, everything worked out for the best then. (He was afraid he'd lose his job, so applied for this one.) Then, I hurried off the phone.
Afterwards, I thought I probably should have congratulated him and asked him a few ? about the new job, so I decided to do that when he came over to drop off D5's Epi-pen. Bad move.
He dropped it off and asked to borrow a screwdriver set - fine. Then
Me: Congratulations on the job; when do you start?
H: June 26.
Me: So soon!
H: Yeah, I'm already doing some work for it, too.
Me: Oh my gosh
H: Yeah, I'll be working a lot now [while he is talking, he starts to walk down the steps w/ his back to me]
Me: Okay bye!
H: [turns around and smiles] Bye!
H sits in his car for 10 mins on the phone then leaves.
Now, this thing w/ walking away from me while we're still conversing REALLY ticks me off - and yes, he knows. What I do now is pretty much what I did - if I'm talking I stop, or if he is, I say good-bye. But see - I initiated, and he was totally disrespectful. This is exactly what he was like before, but then stopped. Now, it's started again.
I sure as heck hope he's doing it w/ ow.
Okay, that's enough of this for now. It's just making me
