Well I came to a head with my stalker-friend. She called yet again and left a snippy message,"well I guess you are ok...call me...click." I am having company today for the next four days and didn't want to have to deal with this lingering issue and the general stress of the issue at hand. I called her back and asked her what was going on that she calling. She said she was just worried if I was ok. I said,"why wouldn't i be?" She then went back to last week where I sounded stressed out. I told her I wasn't stressed out, but rather I just don't like to talk on the phone as much as she does. Then she practically bolted for the receiver saying,"ok, i'll let you go ." I said wait let's get this worked out. But she proceeded to say no, i'll let you go. Then I squeezed in, " then just don't call me again." I am so relieved I have this monkey off my back. I have been awake so many nights dreading this conversation. She did not want to hear what I had to say, so I draw the line at that. I would have been willing to work out a few personality differences and clear this up, but now I never have to call her again, and it was her choice. It feels so good to be free of this burden. I just hope she doesn't call again. I predict she will wait one month to call, but I have nothing more to say if she won't listen. Whew......thanks to everyone who listened. Now i can give my husband some good news that he will no longer have to listen to me complain. Huggs to ya all!! Sesquix
