He received the same invite I did... He is quite capable of responding for himself. These people are more HIS friends than mine. He sees the guy on a daily basis... He could have made his own decision to go and not even tell me or consider me. We are supposed to be independent of each other. We are not a couple. Its not my job to respond for him. The reason I did not respond was because I wasn't sure if I was going to go... because I wasn't sure I could handle it.
Cut it out MM. I was the one who told you all that stuff! But he assumed that you would do as always and correspond for both of you. After all, that's the excuse you gave me then when I suggested he was a big boy who could reply to his own invitations. But oh no, you were representing the joint business. And so now you are saying you never responded at all? I bet you didn't tell him that part either!
The point here is you wouldn't tell him one way or the other! You made excuses for him. And now you come back with the very things I said to you? Please! You love to play the games, not just with him, but with us, too.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
