Thank you for posting Silverado and JCJ. No room at the inn indeed. More like no room at the cat house
Since my last post xh came back one more time to finish up but not without a pathetic try at asking for another date than I had requested:
"I don't think there is much hope you will be willing to compromise further on the plans for this weekend but I have to at least try. One of our cats was diagnosed with stomach cancer this morning. She has battled two previous bouts of cancer during the last year (including having to have her eyes removed) but she is not a candidate for further surgery. I'm not sure how long she has but it is days rather than weeks. If it were possible for me to come during the two days I get for Easter next week (April 1 and 2) it would make a big difference. I understand if you are unwilling to delay further but I had to ask."
When I read "our cats" I saw RED. The proverbial final straw for me. I thought of a response almost immediately but waited 24 hours just to be sure:
"Wow - "our cats". She's indoctrinated you well. Gives new meaning to the phrase pussy whipped. April 1 and 2 will not work for me. Please plan to come this weekend as planned."
His reply:
"Fine. I will be there this weekend. Thanks for understanding."
Sorry. I had to respond one more time:
"I've been understanding (and walked over) for three years. I'm done."
No answer to this one. Good. He arrived, we talked briefly and I left like last time.
Haven't heard from him since. Oh yeah, he left a mess for me to clean up. I guess that was his passive aggressive response.
