WAH - next chapter

[LisaB]

Hi everyone! Thanks for your support today!
What a weird day. Started out all strong and positive and became confusing.

Tried to take the advice of pilot, Old Dog and cq1 and not reply to his texts. But it is hard! He texted me today "hi" and I did not reply. Then a few hours later texted about coming to get his things from my house, as expected. I needed to reply to that since it was logistical, so I did, very short: "yes, that's fine". But apparently when he came to get his things something went wrong (I was not home, on purpose) and he ended up calling and texting a bunch of times. I was out having a good time with friends and did not see the messages until later.

So he didn't pick up his things after all and wants to reschedule again.

I did not reply, I plan to do so tomorrow and tell him to come by when it is convenient for me, not him.

I feel weird about being so short and unfriendly with this. But at the same time, he is not being friendly either. It seems he bases his tone on mine, if I am friendly he is, and if not then he is all business too. Why should I always be the one to be nice first? I am getting quite frustrated and irritated.

Oh db-ers what to do? I am feeling so hopeless and disappointed. He is not the man I thought he was. He has let me down. I realize the things I loved him for were his trustworthiness, his kindness, his caring. And now that those things are shot to hell, what is there to love him for? I don't admire or love this person.

Hugs, Lisa B
