[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 492139, member: 59"] TL you made the effort to contact him and wish him a happy holiday. If he was in meetings all day that is good. They may have tried to keep them busy so they didn't have time to think about what they were missing and start feeling sorry for themselves. I understand your emotions though, I have felt them all, going out of my way to do nice things or contact difficult child and her seeming like she could take it or leave it. And I was left with wondering what she was really feeling. Remember he is still there and that is a good thing. If he was going to bolt I would think he would have done it. I have to take what my difficult child is willing to give me on her time schedule and not have unrealistic expectations. I'm glad you had a nice time at your dinner and a relaxing day yesterday. As far as the trip, I agree with you, if he doesn't care whether you come or not I would not make the effort. The last thing you want to do is go through all that effort if it's no big deal to him. Patriots Girl, I'm thrilled you had a nice time with difficult child. From your post yesterday I was worried. I'm not sure what I think about this relationship and you probably are not either. When I see my difficult child in such a good mood over someone it's usually to convince me he's a great guy. The last one she was going to marry got her pregnant and had a rap sheet a mile long, no job, and a family of criminals. I hope this is the real thing for her and Ihope he has turned his life around and I know you do too. But she was pleasant and respectful to you and that's a good thing. Nancy [/QUOTE]
