that should be nice...
7:56 pm

I have been reading a book about the park (hiking, kayaking, and biking) and I already know that I will want to return in the next 1-2 yrs.
7:56 pm

i am sure you will really enjoy it...
7:56 pm

Driving all of that in 1 day (almost 12 hrs) is just too much.
7:57 pm

yes....you don't want to waste a day there recovering from your drive....
7:57 pm
Scrabbler

But my friend decided that we will leave on Labor Day and cancelled our last night at Bar Harbor. She pissed me off!

Although I hate to waste 2 days driving, but we will arrive fresher and can still be active every day.

8:01 pm
72 Temple Owl

i had that happen to me. the friendship was broken
8:03 pm
Scrabbler

I am not confrontational at all, and just too nice, so I am not sure how to deal with this. I am about ready to be done after detaching from her for the last few years.
8:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

good night. off to watch the eclipse video mu comapnions shot
8:04 pm
Scrabbler

So, Owl, how did you resolve it? A discussion or did you drift apart?
8:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

there was no drfit. an outright break
8:05 pm
Scrabbler

I know she will just get defensive and then cry. But she has a long pattern of being bossy and controlling, changing plans frequently, etc.
8:05 pm
72 Temple Owl

so why are you vacationing with her?
8:06 pm
Scrabbler

We have hiked, biked, kayaked, snowshoed, and skied together for years.
8:07 pm
Scrabbler

Although in the last few years I have made an intentional effort to emotionally detach from her and do less with her.
8:07 pm
72 Temple Owl

i'm sorry, i think i may have spoken without following the conversation. pardon me pls.
8:08 pm
Scrabbler

That's ok.
8:09 pm
72 Temple Owl

she had no right to do what she did without consulting you. that had to be addressed when she told you. can you reinstate?
8:10 pm
72 Temple Owl

i would have had her get it back or I would have cancelled the trip.
8:11 pm
Scrabbler

Part of me is fine with spending one less day and night with her. I am focused on having a great experience in spite of her.
8:11 pm
72 Temple Owl

well, there you go. there is no problem to solve then
8:12 pm
Scrabbler

But, lesson has been learned: make no plans with her and do not vacation with her ever again.
8:13 pm
Scrabbler

I will return to the park in the future with others.
8:13 pm
72 Temple Owl

have a great time! i am looking forward to going to the canada part

8:25 pm
Scrabbler

Ah, MDI = Mount Desert Island.
8:25 pm
penquis

it sounds like you need to clear the air with her....let her know what you need from the relationship and if she can't give you that, you need to distance yourself...
8:25 pm
penquis

yes, the lab is in Bar Harbor....he's entering the Univ. of VT right now....wants to major in microbiology, i think....
8:26 pm
Scrabbler

The friendship matters more to her than me, although she doesn't treat me like an equal. She calls me her best friend. But I see years of bossiness, controlling behavior, lying...
8:27 pm
Scrabbler

I love UVM and Burlington.
8:27 pm
penquis

well if you can be honest with her, she has a chance of saving the relationship...
8:27 pm
penquis

yes, he fell in love with the city and the school when he visited...he's very excited...
8:28 pm
Scrabbler

It will be tough for me because I am too nice, yet I am ready to say good-bye.
8:28 pm
Scrabbler

I first visited Burlington in 2006 and was ready to move there. Great city and location.
8:29 pm
penquis

well if you are honest and willing to break the relationship, she has a chance to change and save it....her choice...
8:32 pm
Scrabbler

Yes, good point. She is the most difficult friend that I have ever had. She wasn't like this 20+ years ago when we first met. And all of us in our circle have the same feelings.
