Message: [QUOTE="MXTex, post: 844313, member: 17501"] Sure. First off, I want to thank everyone for their heartfelt responses. At this point, my plan is to just let the relationship cool. I’m not going to do anything else on his bike, ever, and I’m not going to be calling him to go riding anymore. I’m basically just going to let the relationship go. It’s unfortunate that things got to this point. Neither one of us managed the relationship correctly. I should have said something or done much less long ago when I received the first signs of his intentions and motives. But I didn’t; probably out of insecurity. So I let it fester to the point of no return. On the flip side, he shouldn’t have taken advantage of the situation. But he did and he’s shown his true colors to me very clearly now; so I know what I need to do. Maybe my pulling back will initiate some introspection on his part and lead to some sort of damage control; but I don’t expect it. So I walk away from this situation with another lesson learned. Good friends are very hard to come by. Cherish the ones you have and work smart to develop more. Sometimes they won’t work out, but keep trying. Because the one that do make it all worth it. With a new helmet, new bars and Dr’s release I should be back on the track soon. Things happen for a reason. That bump on the head literally knocked some sense into me. Thanks again to everyone.
