oh wait... when he was shouting at me, I did ask if he'd like me to pull over so that he could get out. he reminded me that the car was 1/2 his... so I said, OK.. I will pull over and let myself out...is this kind of the same thing as saying don't speak to me like that, bond?

ok.. so now he just texted me... "sorry for upsetting you, I do know you try to do the right thing"
I just remembered too, that I was trying to say to h that I dont get "mad" at him.. I get upset for him being "mad" at me.
Here is a silly example of his admitted "carry over" from yesterday that he was MAD at.... I refused to shake a clients hand yesterday because it was quite greasy. H didn't realize earlier that I had joked earlier with the client about him using a rag to review the vehicle as to not get it dirty. Regardless, H thinks I should have shook his hand. Disrespectful/old school. Now, I see h's point.. I agree... but to be MAD at me? to "carry it over" and remember it? That's just screwy!!
Should I respond to H?... I'd like to say something about the handshake... or shall I pretend I didn't get it and was exhausted and fell asleep?

after a half hour, I replied "thanks, I appreciate you telling me".... sure hope that doesnt make me seem hopelessly wrapped and available to him. My male friend seems to think so,

I am trying so hard to detach/dim . Still learning how to be dim and not be baited by his pursuit to ensure I am still "there". But, I feel an apology was worthy of a reply. My friend thinks that my reply sounded hopelessly wrapped and that he can probably see through my attempts to be aloof. That I sound like I really want him to care enough to apologize.
I have to work with him again today and tomorrow.
I want to be the woman he respects and appreciates.

oh also... I have forgotten how to validate. I am not sure what to say, when H is asking me things like... I bet you feel the same when he was discussing running away, etc. Or how long his list is about all the things he is overwhelmed with. All I could do was STFU and nod. Is there a link on validation? or good advice? TX !

Hi KD... no, I actually do think "work".. and stay in "work" mode,
But, you are right... I need to respect myself!
Can you give me advise on validating? Also, can you read my sitch from yesterday, and see if I handled it in the DB way?

ok.. tx bond. New sitch: Normally h & I purchase our inventory together. Well, he just informed me that he will go on his own tomorrow, as Saturday is a busy client day (we have NO appts!!)???. He then threw in the mix that he will leave a vehicle there and drive a diff one back, leaving one there so that he can possibly catch a ride back with a friend sometime on the way to a cottage. He even said, that if I go tomorrow, then he wont... he will stay behind as he feels it will be a busy client day here.
Now my thinking is that that is his point... so that he can entertain this cottage and have a vehicle there to retrieve at his convenience.
Would it be alright to say... I understand the whole cottage attraction if that is your goal, but it doesn't make sense for us to leave a vehicle there, when we normally go together and drive 2 away? This way it allows him to feel he can be honest with me, if that is the case.
