Thanks, CHL, I loved the song. I may use it for the title in my next thread (I guess there is no chance that this one will last long enough to get through my siblings visit )



Cool. Glad you liked the song.

The thread may not last long enough, but if the posts are helping it's worth it.

Hopeful developments here. H called around 1 pm to ask where we were and propose lunch in a place close to his work. I chose to see it as a peace offering .



From a guy perspective, I'd view that as an olive branch also.

Unfortunately we were sitting at a restaurant eating lunch at that time (my sis lives in the UK and gets faint if it is noon and there is no food. How can she be 5'7" and a size 2 is one of those things that just show how unfair life is).



Don't let it bother you too much. It would have been great if you'd been able to meet him. However, as long as you sounded sincerely interested, he'll probably understand that he called a little late for lunch. I think the main thing is that he reached-out.

Suggestion/question: How would he respond if you said something to the effect of "Hey, H... I'm really sorry I couldn't make it to lunch today. Would you be interested in lunch tomorrow?". That might show that you're sincerely interested, and not trying to put your sis first. Caution: Remember... no expectations.

D is still having a lot of fever, so I'll drop my sibs at the Maverick's game and go back home. H will go to a prospective parents meeting at her possible next school and I will take care of her.



I guess it's one of those cases of "when it rains, it pours". You seem to have an awful lot going on right now that's making DB'ing more difficult.
