Thank you Job! I will listen to your advice and will try to be a friend. It's not easy and I really do have a problem with being a friend under the circumstances. But he is much nicer now and I do want to help him, so I'll do my best!
Thank you Esame. Yes, I think it already is a bit easier with his new behavior. I just need to be careful not to get too much into it again. If I do, I know I would get hurt. So, as Job says digging deep for patience and I will try my best to be a friend but to keep detached as much as possible.
Off to holidays now (with h helping to drive there and back).
