Thanks LiveNow, dejavu, and Job. I did enjoy my vacation. Mostly. There were a couple of episodes when H came up in the conversation and then I had a heated argument with my mutual friend on the last day before they left. (We drove back together and they stayed at my house for two nights.)
The people we stayed with are our friends who also have the house at the vacation home place. Some of their friends came with them to their vacation home a few times, so I knew most of the people who came for dinners and BBQ. We also visited other couple who also have a house at the vacation home place.
I got a couple of guys hitting on me, LOL (one single and one separated.) The separated guy is the brother of my mutual friend. His wife left him a few years ago and he is still very much hurting and talking about her all the time. I had a very uncomfortable moment with him, but we got it resolved. I told him that I am not looking for a R or any flick, plus I would not be involved in a R with somebody who is a family member or a close friend of my friends. At least this is how I feel now. I met this guy before multiple times, with H and after the BD. I don’t know why all of a sudden he decided that he liked me so much. I kept hearing about how nice of a person I am, LOL.
It was very relaxing vacation for me, because I didn’t have to do much, I didn’t have to decide where we wanted to go and what to do. Everything was organized, or we just did what we felt like. I didn’t check my e-mails or FB until Sunday, when I got a text from my GF here. She was asking me for a favor saying that she sent me an e-mail. When I open my e-mails, I had one from H. Well, I didn’t expect any e-mails from H any time soon. He sent me the company file (I didn’t ask for that) and asked me about why the QB showed different amount on checking account compared to the bank statement. He also said “I got the mail, thank you.” (his mail I sent him before I went on vacation.) Wow, a nice guy again…
I didn’t reply to the e-mail thinking that I would do it when I get home. I was on vacation after all! The e-mail was actually sent two days after I started my vacation.
Then I received a text from him asking me to send the company payroll info to an auditor from the insurance company. He had to get a workman’s’ comp insurance in that other state where he normally works. The text was on the last day of my vacation. By then I and my friends were back at my house. I replied that I would do it on the next day. Next day I received another text from him asking me if I’ve done any changes in QB, and if I did to please send him the updated file back.
So, it was not quite “H-free” vacation. He managed to remind me about him. WTF! I’m absolutely sure that he knew about my vacation from my mutual friends. After all, they drove his car. This was another thing that made me a bit sad. I had to drive the car on the way back, because it was an agreement that I would drive part of the trip, so we could make it in one day. I was ok with that, even knowing that they might actually drive H’s car. Which they did. So, it was kind of strange to sit on the passenger side of the car, and then drive it. I have to admit that some strange thoughts crossed my mind. At some point I felt like these three years after DB were just a dream, and in reality H just has been working in another state, that’s all. I was sitting in his car like nothing happened. Isn’t it weird?
Anyway, back to H’s contacts during my vacation… Maybe it was coincidence (even though I didn’t ask and didn’t expect the file back from him), maybe he heard the rumors that I was going to be introduced to my other friend’s brother (who is single), or whatever else was on his mind…
This is getting too long. I will have to do another post about my conversation with mutual friends and some other stuff.
