I was talking to my cousin about my house this morning and she takes a picture of HC right next to her (they share a work bench). I say "Hi, hope you had a nice trip!" She shows it to him. Nothing. I text him "just wanted to say hi myself and welcoming you back from your trip. Nothing.

It just isn't cool with me. It doesn't feel good.

I currently feel like in control of nothing and like I am at everyone's mercy with different things in my life.

It simply doesn't feel good. I guess I'll see how Wednesday night feels if it even happens.


This may or may not apply in this situation, so use it if it works for you, but I JUST saw a quote somewhere earlier today that basically said a lack of response IS a response. I get maybe he's busy at work or something and I agree with J9 that I thought we'd all already said keeping your cousin out of it is best, but the fact that he didn't even tell her to say oh tell her I said thanks or something along those lines seems like a response to me. And, because I know you and I think similarly, IF I let it, it would drive me crazy, so I'm assuming that is what you are doing. I'm sorry, G.....that really does suck.
