Need advice please!!! Not sure on next move?

Dixie,
Bond is right on. You need to make sure that you don't let him walk all over you. My W kept doing the same thing to me. We would plan a meeting to get together to split up goods or make logistical plans for her move. And every damned time, she would try to change the plans at the last minute. Sometimes as late as one hour before we were to meet, she would try to change the meeting time or place. Because I was scared and lonely, I would let her do it. But, that all came to a halt three weeks ago.

I had been working pretty hard on my DB'ing skills and I had told my C about her behavior. He told me I had to put a stop to it. I thought long and hard about how I was going to do it and I waited. Sure enough, she tried it again. We made plans to meet at our house at 7pm. These plans were finalized at 10am that morning. At 2 pm, I get a text requesting a change in time to 8pm. I agreed. Then at 5pm, I get another text asking for a public place. I blew my freaking top!!! But, I took a breath, calmed down and text'ed her back the following:

"I am trying my best to meet your needs, but I have already agreed to the change in time and I think I have been more than fair with you. We will meet at 8pm at our house or we will not meet at all."

15 minutes later I got this long apology text stating that she would agree to my terms and she went on and on about how she was not trying to be difficult. To that I say, "Bullsh*t." Dixie, they left. They walked away. WE DON'T OWE THEM ANYTHING!!! Next time he shows up late, politely point out to him that he is late and that you had plans that he is now infringing upon. Watch and see what happens next time. As long as you lay down, he will wipe his feet on you. You are a proud Southern woman. Demand the respect you deserve.

BITS never walk alone!
