Sanderika, you can vent all you like. This is what the boards are all about!
I understand your confusion, trust me!!!
I am feeling much the same as you. One part of me is saying, "Enough! Don't tolerate this hot and cold stuff any more." The other part is just too confused and is trying to determine his thinking. I mean, who sends soups and organises boxes and sends a wish for a successful surgery and doesn't follow up with a message for a speedy recovery at the very least?? Yes, it's an expectation but hardly extreme.
It is so similar for you; all the positive gestures and then the pull back again.
I know we can't understand what they're thinking (or not thinking as it maybe!!).
