Yes, I think he is a bit insecure about me not needing him for my work.
I told him a few weeks ago that I didn't want his help anymore and then last time we met, I told him to forward me the domain details as my new web designer needs them. I referred to the web designer as 'him' because he's male, and my guess is, H doesn't like that because according to his email, he has been working on a site for 'days'.
All of my friends are female and even my online male friends such as yourself, he is not aware of. This is the first time I've mentioned a 'him', and that coupled with me saying I don't need his help has probably jolted him into doing something.
I got an email off the other guy re the website and he is still working on it and I'm not going to stop him as H is so unreliable I will be interested to see if he comes up with the goods.
BTW, there is nothing romantic going on with the other guy. It's purely professional. His wife is a customer of mine, just thought I'd clarify that point.
I think you and UD are right. I could do with being more gentle with H. Next time I will be a tad more friendly with him.
