Here is what he wrote last Monday:

“I hope this email finds you well. I had an upsetting and pretty much confrontational discussion with my stupid supervisor, so for my actions, he rested me for the week. I basically told him to shove it and that I will go back if I want to. So, as of now, I’m working at the house, getting my paperwork together for other jobs I had lined up. I also left my work truck back there at the job site, so I am also trying to work on how to get around other than that little car I had bought for my daughter. I will be in touch with you as soon as I get my mind, body and spirit in place.”

Here was my response:

“I think I understood what you were trying to convey….thank you for at least letting me know. I am really sorry you are having such problems, but with any other areas of your life, you have to do what you have to do. With all sincerity, I truly hope everything will work out for you!”

I was wondering the same thing about the misunderstanding of my response. Was he trying to tell me he was breaking up with me over his email? Did I respond like I was cool with it? I can’t believe he would just never write me back. Is he waiting for me to write back? In my opinion, the ball is in his court, because I am the last person that wrote. Basically he told me that he would contact me when he was ready. That is how I am taking this. A couple of friends seem to think that he will reach out to me eventually, but I don’t. I am pretty convinced that he isn’t going to ever contact me again, because, simply, he doesn’t have to see me. We live four hours away from one another. It doesn’t make the pain any less, though. Do you know how many times I have told him, and offered to back away from the situation & to give him space, and he always says NO! I don’t want space from you! Something happened over last weekend to make this guy change his attitude & feelings towards me. We were so close as friends too. We knew about each other’s deepest, darkest secrets, and then for him to send me some weird, vague email like that is just freaky! This guy knows me very well, and he has to know that I am extremely upset about him not calling. I wonder if he’ll miss me even?
