Julia, It appears H is being consistent.... offering excuses as to why he hasn't caught up with you...best of intentions and all that and then suggesting a catch up. It's like he's relieved that you have initiated things because it allows him to still keep his nice guy image intact.
I'm sure Australia is a very different way of living. Life on the GC is very easy to handle in terms of the climate and it is a more relaxed way of living. Sun, sea, pools and waterways are a huge feature. In Melbourne, of course there is the variety of 4 seasons all in one day and that can drive you crazy! However, with it comes business and culture. Sydney is just plain busy and yet beautiful and of course all the states and territories are so different. Is it possible for you have a test run of life here? Can you take some leave and have a working holiday? It would give you a clearer insight into the Aussie way of life.
