Hey OC - Tried to call you several times but no answer. How are you? Anything going on with you? I've been thinking about you... peace - Our H's are really similar, aren't they? I agree that our friend is a true friend for standing up to him, but H sees it otherwise (unfortunately for me, friend isn't exactly a prime example of good moral character, so H is using that against him).
You're right, I'm not ready to D right now so I'm not going to ask. I'm as comfortable as I can be with this crappy situation, but I have nothing to complain about. Until this situation no longer works for me, I will just continue on like this. I believe in what I'm standing for, but if H decides otherwise, I will also respect his decision and let him go.
H is very aware that what he's doing is wrong and also aware that I was hurt. I think the guilt from that is what keeps him so distant. I didn't think of it as him seeing me in a positive light though. Interesting.
I really think ogre is just out of town, so he's a little bored and lonely and is just filling the void by communicating with me. I do find it interesting though that he usually seems to contact me to let me know whenever something good happens at work. Like he's either trying to impress me or he wants my praise.
I really need to back off, stop watching the clock and let him continue to bake.
