Another thing that happened while H was here is that he announced he was going to change his Christmas visit to leave Dec. 23rd and not be here for Christmas day. I have no idea what the "original" plan was, but he said this after a disagreement about something - sort of as a punishment to me, I guess.
I just said okay, I understood and booked a flight to spend Christmas with my sister.
After I told him I couldn't be in business with him after a D, he asked "How about I change my schedule to be here for Christmas?" I thought that was odd since it kind of came out of the blue during the convo.
I told him I didn't want to disappoint my sister and didn't think I should cancel that. He suggested that we make a decision about that "next week." Again, odd.
I started putting things together and realized some stuff just didn't add up. So, I gently and innocently asked some questions about it - like I didn't know he could fly out so late and still make a connection in Europe to his destination. He came up with a vague answer that wasn't an answer. Later, I asked point blank if the reason he had "changed" his plans was because he had made other plans for Christmas. He said no.
Anyway, I suspect that he had made other plans, decided he should be here for damage control and now has to try to unmake those plans.
I know he is lying - none of it adds up - but I think the thing that irritates me the most isn't the lies, it is the fact that he thinks I am stupid. Arghh!
Anyway, I'm not changing my plans. I'm not quite sure how I should handle that if he goes ahead and changes his schedule without consulting me first. There's no way he would go with me - he doesn't like my sister. I suppose I just leave him here by himself??
I don't know how I would handle that one.
