I just read your reply to James L, so some of my post does not apply.

I can pay him the £100

If it is true your H had the business when he borrowed the money from the friend, let your H pay it back. Tell H you can't because you don't have the money. Is there an asset/a thing, from the £100 loan you don't use and could give to H?

Jo. Sounds like typical guy stuff, they do not want to admit they fail sometimes. Sometimes they get mentally attacked if they do. Some guys mistakenly think they are supposed to be strong, know what they are doing, don't have to ask for help, are the captain of the ship and have to know everything so people respect them. Some guys take too many chances for their own good

We talked normally on the phone and arranged that he and the kids come over for the day on Bank holiday Monday (I'm seeing him Saturday as well) and I didn't let on that I am upset.

Some what good Jo. I would say that I am happy to see H but say what a prediciment you are in because of the £100 loan.

Just now I feel like I'm the only one who cares about my work.

How to speak Brittish

1. Drinking Bailey's=Temporary solution

2. feeling miserable=normal ups and downs. This is why many of us return to this web site.

3. I have to snap out of it= work through some anger, vent here, meditation relaxing music, exercise. I think the "snap out of it" mentality is a flaw too many people wish would happen.

4. be like an angel when he visits on Saturday= too much pressure on you being an "angel." Pleasant most of the time is more practical.
When you are holding in resentment I think a little shows through. You send a double message like " I love you but I hate you" Jo, How do you react to people that have that type of behavior?

There is a little angel in all of us. Jo, I have seen your's. It does not have to be on call (working) all of the time.
