They don't call this a rollercoaster ride for nothing!!!
Went to the business meeting for about 20 minutes and after I asked H if we could stay to discuss situation re D. H said ok and offered me another coffee. I said I was actually a bit hungry so he ordered some raisin toast which we shared. Conversation was very pleasant and we agreed on a course of action for the situation with D.
Then as we are about to leave H says, "We need to get our financial settlement organised." I agreed. Then he started going on about how I needed to put something in writing to him, that he's tried to organise to settle with me before and now it was up to me. I said I was a bit confused by this because he had asked for my solicitor's details weeks ago and told me that he was going to use the solicitor to sort things between us- that's the contact he made to change the NC. I asked why we couldn't just sit down together to sort it and he said no I needed to put a proposal to him. Up until now I have said that if he wanted to settle I would not stand in the way but I would not do the work.
When I came home he had declined the birthday invitation based on his work commitments and the fact that he wanted 'no fuss'.
Am I back at square one? It feels like it!! Why am I back at this point? Is it a pullback? Do I send him a proposal or do I just leave it to him? He says if I don't put forward a proposal he will go through a solicitor. I know this wouldn't be his preferred option.
