It absolutely was the plan all along. I fell for it, plain and simple.
So I just got this response from him via email:
It's not my intention to stir the waters, S mentioned it and all I said is we need to discuss it offline. Nothing else was said until I emailed you.
You need to realize that I don't know how the adjustment is going. I tried to get them to talk the other night, but nothing came up so I let it go. You see them on a daily basis and have a much better feel. If possible, can you please communicate how they are doing? I don't think they are comfortable talking to me at this stage and I am in the dark.
I think the restaurant is a great idea. Again the only thing he mentioned is getting the invitations out, it was literally a two sentence conversation, and now that I am thinking of it, came up when C was asking about M's party.

My response was simple and short
Ok, will do
Once we figure this one out, we need to focus on doing these type of things separately going forward to avoid any of this. It is the reality of our situation, and needs to be this way It's not too late to just start with this one, I haven't talked to S yet. It is really important as we all adjust and move forward.
Let me know what you guys decide and I will support it.
