last time i saw him was the phone session. then... he wasn't going to be in on Friday so we missed that session. And Monday is a public holiday so I'm going to miss that session. So it will be two weeks since between last time I actually saw him and when I see him next.

I've sent him a couple emails and... Nothing. Usually he makes a bit more of an effort to respond. They are typically brief and kinda strangely formal... But he has been making an effort.. And now he seems to have stopped.

Crap on him.

I'm going to be out of the country for 9 months and he was like 'its ok we can still email'. But he sucks at email. And I told him so... then realized I had hurt his feelings and that he was really trying... So I backed down a little. And the story he seems to be telling himself (that he told me out loud) that my upset over emails was because of my expectations but that emails between us were going better now because I had changed my expectations. Yeah, whatever, I was just trying to encourage him.

I don't think wanting a reply - in the form of acknowledgement - is that big an ask. I don't think our emailing is going to work out. Crap on him.
