Julia, I am going to make my best attempt and helping with the quandries, but I don't know if I'll be very objective seeing as how I'm ROYALLY PISSED at your H right now!
1.He only has whatever power you choose to give him. So he's totally inconsiderate....not new, right? I know you try to hope for better from him but he keep proving himself to be a self-absorbed f*tard. Sorry, that's just the way he seems to be living his life. Forget the lunch. More discussion about logistics or the house really isn't going to resolve anything.
2.Yup. All about him. He isn't concerned with how you are going to move because that would not be... ALL ABOUT HIM. I would suggest that if you do talk to him (or text or email) that you tell him to come and get his things as well as making arrangements for a service to move you when you are ready since this it's only necessary for you to move because of his actions....ok, sarcasm doesn't come through very well in written form! Don't really do that! I'm at a loss as to how to handle your move on your own. Can your friend come help you on another weekend? Do you know anyone that owns a truck or van? Anyone who drives a truck or van for a living and could arrange to borrow it for a weekend? Do you have anything like U-Haul or Ryder truck rentals there?
3.Yeah, I like the not responding. You are not at his beck and call.
The lunch question? Hmmmm......again, I say don't respond. He can't give you the courtesy of canceling or giving adequate notice of a change, you don't need to respond to his rudeness.
Ok...this probably isn't sounding very nice. As a matter of fact I KNOW it doesn't. However, you have proven you are a strong, independent woman. He is treating you like crap and he doesn't deserve any courtesy from you either. Like for like.
A Godmother??? Fabulous! HUGE responsibility. You'll have to post pics in the alt. Love a good christening.
