Dear loveandkisseszaphod:

There is one detail that is very, very important but you didn’t mention it: did he offer to pay for a new mattress, did he order a new mattress for you so to replace the one he destroyed?

He told you that “he can’t stomach the fact that I kicked him out of the house for an incident that he had almost no control over”-

– but did he do the basic, decent thing that he did have control over = order you a new mattress of the same or better quality than the one he destroyed?
