Going up, going down...

[BrightFuture]

So, no follow up message from H. Now I get it. The absence of a question mark in his sentence about his ballot means that he kind of expects me to mail it to him, he doesn’t need to ask me, just point out that he wants to make sure “he votes”. And then I should figure out what to do next – mail it to him. I’m still curious about that behavior. I have a few thoughts on this:

1. He is not comfortable asking me to mail his ballot to him
2. He is testing if I am still this considerate “friend” who does him favors without him asking
3. He is selfish SOB.
4. All of the above.

I guess I’m at the point when if I need something from him, I will just ask. But try not to need anything from him. I will be asking for an updated company file shortly, because it looks like I’m picking some extra work on the side, which I want to run through the company. I know that he is kind of dependent on me in terms of convenience of having my address for some of his mail and having me as a back up on the condo mortgage. Maybe he feels trapped, IDK. He was the guy who always able to make the hard decisions and follow up with them. The only hard decision he’s made so far is separate from me.

If he is not comfortable with asking me for favors, he can change that.

I know this probably comes across as one of the posts about mail subject again. And I will probably get an advice, once again, to tell him to send his mail somewhere else. I’m going to pull mkaingmajic and just be stubborn here. Plus, it is not that it is the fact that I send him his mail bothers me. I find myself constantly curious about what is going on with H these days and when he is going to take any action. I know that I’m not ready for action on my side yet, but I’m ready to response to his.

In a sense, I feel that by not taking any action myself, I’m torturing the poor guy and make him suffer through these uncomfortable moments of asking me for favors.
