Small update from my WWYD

[jojoandleo]

H and I talked again on Sunday and he is a lot more open to it now. He was talking about our plan moving forward and everything.  He actually talked to his dad about it (his dad loves me, by the way) and I think his dad helped him get on board.  I don't know what will happen in the end, but I think his asshole behavior (because he was being an asshole) was fear. Fear with moving, fear with the state of our relationship, fear of his professional aspirations, everything.  Because this job brought ALL of those things up.  I'm not convinced everything will be okay, but I feel a little better after our Sunday talk. And I feel I understand why he acted the way he did. Doesn't make the way he acted okay, but it makes me feel less blind-sided.

On the bright side-I am feeling a lot better about everything now.  I had some time with friends this weekend and told them everything.  They all know MH and know he's not a bad guy, but they also know his issues and stuff.  They were very supportive of ME and making myself happy.  So, it was nice.

Glad you all talked and that you are feeling better. It sounds like you have a good grasp on the situation for the various scenarios that could play out. Yay for new job!

I'm glad that he is coming around! While his initial reaction was awful, a true sign of character will be how he is going forward. Sometimes news rocks us and we react poorly, but first reactions aren't always an indication of true feelings.

I am super excited for you moving forward!

I am so glad he is coming around and you can head into the new job with a better overall feeling. How did the current job take the resignation?

I'm so happy for you! I'm glad your H is coming around. Maybe once you guys settle in the new place, it will be like a starting over period. Either way, congrats again!
