Tell him to invite Andre Miller instead of you on Sunday!
"H, I really appreciate your thoughts on the Nugs game on Sunday. I really don't want to do the games as a family, so how about we take turns, and then S and D can alternate inviting their friends? I think that's a win-win for everyone."
Oy.
Having "the discussion" is a heck of a lot different than showing up to social events with the dickwad. I could hang out with my ex-dickwad now, but I sure as heck couldn't have done it it back then. It was just too confusing for me.
In fact, if he proceeds with badgering you to do his bidding, tell him, "H, this is just really confusing for me right now. I need to consider my feelings and needs at the moment, and this doesn't work for me."
You're a good egg, Melissa.
