PL, I could also tell you what a jerk your H is, but you already know that. What's really important to realize right now is that your frustration mainly stems from your own expectations.

Of course, anyone would be upset to prepare a fine dinner for nothing, but the main reason you are upset is that you thought H was warming up to you, and H mentioned seeing the movie ... and you built tonight up in your head into something that it wasn't. Your H's rollercoaster behavior is normal for a WAS, and you know this. You need to calm down and realize that you let your detachment slip and you'll have to build it up again.


The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth." (Psalm 145:18)
