Angry WAH blames me for everything.......(2)

[Calibri]

Thanks for the insight UpperCu, it was a nice reminder!

In other news, H did not call at lunch like he promised, which is what I anticipated. I decided to remain silent and see what would happen. He sent me a few text messages and I responded back. Later this evening he told me he liked talking about positive stuff and asked if we could have a conversation via text message. He asked a few things about what was going on with me: I was upbeat, told him about my PRs with crossfit, every day blah blah blah. He seemed (for what I could tell over text) genuinely impressed with my progress (yeah dude, life changing event + working out lots of frustration = lots of gains) and, surprisingly validated the hell out of me. God, he's probably DBing me.

I asked him about what was going on with him, and we chatted for a few more minutes. I wrapped it up and said it was nice talking to him tonight, he's aid the same and we left it at that.

Things I did differently today:
- I struck with my goal of letting him contact me.
- although I was slightly annoyed with him not calling, I kept it to myself and went on about my day. I did not bring it up at all. In fact, I planned my evening as if I wouldn't hear from him and was shocked when I did.
- I was agreeable to his terms of the conversation (keeping it positive, remaining via text instead of on the phone)
- I remained patient because I saw that he was trying, with the conversation.
- I remained up beat and kept it short and sweet.

So. One positive interaction in the books. Here's hoping for another.

In other news, last nights conversation really helped my PMA. People today remarked that I seemed more upbeat and in good spirits. I don't know, it was just nice to be acknowledged for once.
