Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc. is in the final stages of talks to take over Bank of Ayudhya, a major Thai commercial bank, informed sources said.
The parent of Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ aims to acquire a stake of 51 percent or more in the Thai bank through a tender offer, the sources said Saturday.
Bank of Ayudhya has basically agreed to Mitsubishi UFJ's offer, according to the sources.
Mitsubishi UFJ is expected to spend hundreds of billions of yen to buy Bank of Ayudhya shares from such shareholders as General Electric Co. of the U.S., which currently holds a 25 percent stake, they said.
The takeover would make Mitsubishi UFJ the first Japanese banking group to run a major Asian bank. Mitsubishi UFJ is expected to send board members to Bank of Ayudhya.
Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ (BTMU) is hoping to utilize the Thai bank to expand operations in the country to include lending to small companies and housing loans.
The Japanese bank's operations in Thailand have so far focused on support through a branch in Bangkok to Japanese companies operating in the Southeast Asian country.
Because Thailand does not allow foreign banks with branches in the country to take stakes in local banks, BTMU plans to integrate its Bangkok branch into Bank of Ayudhya.
The banking group is hoping to utilize its experience in running California-based Union Bank to make Bank of Ayudhya grow larger to meet a variety of financing needs in Asia.
Recently in Asia, BTMU invested some ¥60 billion in Vietnam Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Industry and Trade.
Rival Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp., a unit of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Inc., last month announced a plan to invest around ¥150 billion in Indonesia's Bank Tabungan Pensiunan Nasional.
In both cases, stakes acquired by the Japanese banks were below 50 percent.

There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
An encephalocele is a rare birth defect in which the tissue covering the brain, and a portion of the brain itself, protrude through openings in the skull. It may be accompanied by other craniofacial defects.
Encephaloceles can occur anywhere in the skull — involving the top, back or sides of the head or the forehead, nose and eye area. Their severity varies, depending on their size, location and what parts of head and face are involved.
The exact cause of encephalocele is unknown. It a type of neural tube defect, meaning that the neural tube — a narrow channel that should close during early gestation to form the brain and spinal cord — does not close properly.
Read more of our patient stories.
The Craniofacial Program at Boston Children's brings together a team of highly experienced neurosurgeons, plastic surgeons, oral and maxillofacial (face and jaw) specialists, dentistry professionals, psychologists and social workers, all experienced in rare malformations. While repairing the physical deformity, we also focus on minimizing disability from any neurologic and developmental damage that may have occurred. Meet our craniofacial team.
Our program has pioneered the use of 3D-printed models of the brain and skull to help plan operations for craniofacial deformities, including encephalocele. The models are created from an individual child's imaging scans in partnership with Boston Children's Simulator Program, allowing surgeons to plan and rehearse complex operations. Learn more about our craniofacial research.

My daughter is so happy that she is really understanding algebra 2. Her grades have come up. I have told many parents about this program and highly recommend it if their children are struggling in math.
We have been exceptionally pleased with the impact that Mathnasium has had on our kids' math abilities. The defect was seen within two weeks, and has only gotten better. Also, the benefit has extended to other areas of learning.
Seth loved his time at Mathnasium! It made math so much easier for him. We hope to be back in the fall.
Great staff very knowledgeable and friendly.
My daughter loves Mathnasium.
My student just started with you. I haven't really had the opportunity to see the progress he is making because of the holiday season. I really like the fact that you are working on skills that he is missing.
Everyone was so helpful and patient with Sarah and took extra time as needed for her to excel with Math. I had all great experiences with Mathnasium.
Dawn worked really well with Shea, enabling her to get a great grade in college algebra.
I like the ratio of teachers to the children and how Sarah receives help that she cannot get in the classroom of 24 students. I believe she is understanding Math better and her grades are improving.
Our daughter has completely changed her hatred of math into a fearless competency. It took her two months to gain new confidence. I want her to continue to work through this common sense, skillfully crafted curriculum.
Our sons grade went up a full letter grade by his next grade card and it's expected to go up another letter grade by next 9 weeks end!
Going to Mathnasium has been such a positive experience. Our son is getting the help he needs in a very encouraging and supportive environment.
The workers are very helpful, kind and knowledgeable. Mathnasium is a great resourse for kids.
Malcolm has said this is where he really learns calculus. He feels he
can ask lots of questions and he is taught to a point where the
light bulb goes off!
I am glad he comes home after mathnasium and he is smiling knowing he
understands it.
Thank you Elyn Guy
I like how the teachers are patient with Sarah and passionate about what they do. I am glad that there is a place that just concentrates on Math, the only subject she has struggles. I like the learning process to help her understand Math better and apply it in ways that make sense.
Found you helpful, receptive to feedback. Has been a positive experience!
Livia is gaining confidence and taking her time reading the math problems now. I hope she keeps moving forward with her progress.
It is still early in the process so the assistance given has yet to have an impact on school grades; however, Mike and Zach are gaining in confidence and appear to enjoy the remedial sessions.
My son really enjoys it and it seems to be helping with both his skills and his confidence.

Hmmm...my hubby drinks whey protein after his workouts too (chocolate flavor). Didn't realize it could help with hair growth. But it always smells so disgusting (yuck). I'd probably have to doctor it up so much to be able to drink it, that it would lose any nutritional value. But might be worth a try. And if I could just get my butt moving with some exercise too...

Malaria's Genetic Game Of Cloak and Dagger
By NATALIE ANGIER
Published: August 22, 1995
THE most frightening things in life are not the unknown but the familiar demons that refuse to leave. Among the greatest forces shaping the course of human history, sometimes scooping entire populations off the map, is infectious disease; after a brief, charming fantasy that the age of infectious diseases was behind us, the entire medieval bestiary of scourges has returned with teeth bared and claws extended: tuberculosis, cholera, typhus, virulent pneumonia and that festering tropical fever with the singsong Latinate name, malaria.
Not long ago, there was heady talk of eradicating malaria through a one-two punch of DDT, to control the mosquitoes that transmit the disease, and of the drug chloroquine, to treat patients already infected with the malarial parasite. Now mosquitoes throughout the tropics are immune to most insecticides, while chloroquine-resistant strains of the most lethal malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, are sweeping across sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia and Latin America. Each year, nearly half a billion people develop malaria, and one million to two million die of the disease, most of them young children.
When Westerners think of disease in Africa, they think AIDS, they think Ebola virus. But when Westerners talk to health officials in the sub-Sahara, they hear about the catastrophe of drug-resistant malaria. "As a result of this problem of drug resistance," said Dr. Charles C. J. Carpenter, professor of medicine at Brown University and physician in chief at the Miriam Hospital in Providence, R.I., "malaria must be considered one of the major re-emerging infections of the world."
Nor are candidate malaria vaccines likely to offer substantive relief any time soon. Reporting in the current issue of the journal Lancet, scientists from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine said that a vaccine initially considered very promising, called the SPf66 vaccine, had in fact given almost no protection against malaria when tested on children living in Gambia.
Grim as the clinical status of malaria may be, scientists have lately made spectacular progress in deciphering a central component of the parasite's power. They have discovered how P. falciparum (pronounced fal-SIP-a-rum) manages to dodge a person's immune system, even while it makes its presence in infected red blood cells flagrantly obvious.
In three papers that appeared in a recent issue of the journal Cell, and a fourth in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, an international group of researchers described how the parasite accomplishes the task of changing its signature proteins just often enough to stay one step ahead of the host antibodies aimed against it, a process called antigenic variation. They have identified a huge family of genes, called the var genes, for variability, that the parasite can mix and match to generate millions of antigenic proteins, thus managing to stay one step ahead of the host's valiant effort to root it out.
These antigenic proteins are extraordinary molecules, serving at once as the parasite's dagger and its cloak. It turns out that when P. falciparum, a single-celled protozoan parasite, invades a person's red blood cell, the better to feast on the hemoglobin sequestered within, the parasite damages the host blood cell and makes it vulnerable to the clean-up mechanism that transports injured blood cells to the spleen for destruction. That fate would also kill the parasite embedded inside, clearly undesirable from P. falciparum's perspective. To prevent splenic death, the parasite sends out proteins to the surface of the red blood cell to form knobs, latching the cells to the inner surface of the blood vessels and keeping them from being washed into the spleen.
By putting its personal plug on the exterior of the red blood cell, however, the parasite risks alerting the body's immune system. Here is where the var genes come into play. They allow the parasite to vary its anchoring knob proteins just enough to elude the sentinels of the immune system while still keeping its co-opted home fastened to the blood vessels and allowing the protozoan to happily feed and breed within.
As soon as the immune system figures out the hallmark of the parasite's presence and moves in for the kill, presto plasmodium! The parasite switches around its var genes, creating new protective proteins to which the host immune system is temporarily blind.
"The host and parasite are playing a chess game, like the Knight and Death in 'The Seventh Seal,' " said Dr. Louis H. Miller of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in Bethesda, Md., referring to the classic film by Ingmar Bergman. "In this case, the parasite plays the role of Death." Dr. Miller, chief of the laboratory of parasitic diseases, is the senior author of one of the Cell papers.
Scientists have long suspected that the P. falciparum parasite varies parts of itself as its core defense strategy, but the isolation of these variability genes has proved elusive until now. With the large gene family identified, researchers can begin to trace just how the parasite changes its genes and can seek ways to prevent it from doing so, thereby giving the body a chance to recognize infested blood cells as the iniquitous dens they are and to flush them onward toward the spleen. Such a strategy could prove valuable in preventing cerebral malaria, when infected blood cells clog the blood vessels of the brain, a complication that often leads to death.

To help us all get some more insight into our finalist teams, we asked Daniel Sanchez and Gary Longoria to answer a few questions about their involvement in the contest and the idea they submitted. This is our last blog regarding our finalists! We are so excited for the finals at SAPPHIRE! Stay tuned for our Grand Prize Winner!
Why did you get involved in the App Rumble?
We got involved in the App Rumble with Professor Leigh Jin. She knew that together we had the experience to build a useful and successful mobile app, and encouraged us to work together.
How did you come up with your idea? What makes you passionate about your idea?
We came up with the idea for our application through reading an article that Professor Jin had given us about using mobile technology to combat heart disease. We realized that the data collected in measuring blood-sugar levels is often put into silos and that data could be analyzed to find and to predict trends and that this data would require HANA to be able to process and to make real-time recommendations. I (Gary) am diabetic and I have many friends and family members that suffer from diabetes and we believe that this app could help alleviate that suffering. We also started thinking about other medical conditions that affected our daily lives and the people around us.
Gary: Speaking for myself, I am passionate about the idea because I have first-hand experience with managing diabetes and know what kind of tools would be useful for diabetics, but aren't available on the market. I believe our app can change the diabetes care landscape and would be beneficial for anyone with the condition.
Did you get support from your school and/or professor?
Yes, we have been supported by our information systems professor. Professor Jin helped us hash out and articulate some of the ideas for the purpose and the functionality of the app. San Francisco State University also has an SAP certificate program on campus and access to SAP development tools, which we have been able to take advantage of.
What did you learn during your process?
This was our first time ideating a mobile app; so, I think that I learned how to better use my imagination in developing a technological solution for a real-world problem. We also learned about how to determine needs and solutions using Design Thinking, as well as how to present a mobile application for development and in-memory computing.
Have you learned anything new about SAP?
We didn't know much about the SAP and its technologies until we began to research them, especially HANA and how it can be implemented as a solution to the world's largest problems.
While researching and preparing the app idea submission, we also learned about the industries that SAP was involved in. We were surprised by how diverse the company was in the areas that they worked in.
What are you most excited for at SAPPHIRE?
We are most excited to see the demos of the other applications and meet everyone in person. We are also eager to learn about the new tools that SAP has and what they can do. We are nervous and excited about presenting our app idea at the conference!
Thanks to Daniel and Gary for their input! We look forward to the finals at SAPPHIRE!

With the deals I got compared to the STi, the rex was 9 grand less and still pulls rather nicely compared to the STi (which I test drove too). But its your wallet, I think you'll be happy with either choice, but a used STi probably was beaten pretty hard. Drive one and you'll know why!Originally Posted by 240toSTi

Wald test on mathematica
Hello there. I've been trying to make a Wald test, but I got into some
problems. Lists are sort of vectors I guess, but they don't always function
that way.Here is my ordinary least squares function:
ols[x_, y_] := (Inverse[Transpose[x].x]).Transpose[x].y;
And my wald test:
wald[r_, q_, x_,
y_] := (Transpose[(r.ols[x, y]) - q].Inverse[
r.Inverse[Transpose[x].x].Transpose[r]].(r.ols[x, y] - q)*(Part[
Dimensions[x], 1] -
Part[Dimensions[xdmda], 2]))/((errors[x, y].errors[x, y])*
Part[Dimensions[r], 1])
Where r and q make up the linear restrictions as in rb = q
The thing that bothers me is (and it's the same with ols) that I can't use
this same function if x is a vector instead of a matrix or if r is a vector,
because mathematica will not allow me to transpose a one-dimensional list.
What should I do? Should I make a "If, then" thingy or is there some simpler
way I'm not aware of for dealing with this kind of situatitions?

What the Colts did Right
The Colts played 3 great quarters.
Let's start with the offense. Andrew Luck had a great game. He was accurate and he didn't make mistakes. He found the open guys and used his legs a lot, which is good. He showed us that he has good wheels making some good runs early on. But today, his long passes were great. He made a superb throw to Donnie Avery down the field. THen he made another great pass at the end of the half to Reggie Wayne. He was on in the first half. In the 2nd half, the Colts went to a more run heavy offense, and Luck only had 14 throws in the 2nd half, but he still looked good. Most of his throws in the 2nd half were on the button. All in all, he had a great bounceback game and as the weeks go on, he's getting more and more comfortable.
Reggie Wayne and Donnie Avery both had great games. Avery had 9 catches for 111 yards and Wayne had 6 catches for 71 yards and 1 touchdown. They were the 2 front runners today. Avery made a big catch at the start, but after that showed his good hands making good short passes. One of his catches that jumps out at me is the 7 yard slant where there was a cornerback behind him and a safety coming over to hit him and he still made the catch. Reggie Wayne was clutch. He started out slow, but made a nice TD catch and some nice first down catches. His last catch of the game was very important. He got a 20 yard catch at the end of the game to put the Colts in Vikings territory. On that same drive, the Colts scored the game winning field goal.
Anthony Castonzo was the only good lineman. Yes, he had some bad plays against Jared Allen, but name me a left tackle in the league who hasn't had a tough time against Allen. Allen didn't have one sack, and didn't have more than 5 or 6 pressures on Luck. He also didn't have one penalty.
Then the defense.
Cory Redding was the best defensive player, and there were some really good games from some other guys. He was the main reason why AP had a very quiet second half, and had some bad runs in the first half. On top of that, he had a fumble recovery that set up a Colts field goal. That put the icing on the cake. Also, Fili Moala had some good plays today and improved after last week's mediocre performance.
As for the linebackers, all 4 starters had good games. You don't hear that too often. Let's start from left to right. Jerry Hughes had a slow start to the game, but got progressively better even getting a sack in the 3rd quarter. He went all out in the 2nd half and it showed. Then, Kavell Conner. He had some oppurtunities to make big plays, but all in all, he was consistent and solid. He made 6 tackles and helped slow down AP in the 2nd half. Jerrell Freeman had another solid game. He made a lot of good tackles, 13 to be exact. He also had an important forced fumble on Christian Ponder, that set up a Adam Vinatieri field goal. Then, finally there was Robert Mathis. Like last week he started the game with a sack, and he got some good pressure on Ponder. He's been a real positive thus far.
Then in the secondary, Jerraud Powers and Antoine Bethea both had great games. Bethea made great tackles, some of which were very hard and made a loud noise. He's a stud, and he even looked good in coverage. He took away the deep passes, which is one of the things that the Colts wanted and that I mentioned in the Double A Breakdown. As for Jerraud Powers, he had a slow start, but was clutch down the line. His coverage in the 2nd half was superb and I don't believe he allowed any catches his way. He knocked down some balls and made some great tackles also. He had 9 on the day, which is crazy for a cornerback.
On special teams, Pat McAfee had arguably the best game of his career. He had a booming 64 yard punt and had a 56 yard punt too. He also made some tackles/push outs on kickoff. Adam Vinatieri was golden as usual. He made a couple of good field goals early on, but nothing compares to his game winning 53 yard field goal that went right down the middle. He's still got it!
There were more positives than negatives.
What the Colts did Wrong
The Colts did not show up in the 4th quarter. The unfamiliarity of playing with the lead really hurt them in the 4th.
On offense, the running game never got going. The running backs didn't find the holes, and they didn't run with authority, they slowed down too much and were caught up from behind from the defensive end. However, the main reason why the running game wasn't there, was because of the O-line.
The O-line was bad today. Seth Olsen had a bad game, Linkenbach had a bad game, McGlynn had some snapping problems and Trai Essex took penalties. None of them were solid and they were the only reason why Luck had to scramble so much, and why there were so many close calls. Link was the worst of the group. Robison and Griffin got around him constantly and if it weren't for Luck's awareness, he would have been sacked a lot more.
As for the defense.
The secondary had some trouble on some plays. Justin King had a bad defensive holding call that costed the Colts a touchdown, and Tom Zbikowski missed some tackles.
The pressure also slowed down in the 4th quarter as nobody had a sack and were barely able to generate any pressure giving Ponder time to find his targets and throw the ball. They need to stay consistent, because it was like that last week.
A small detail that should be noted. Kavell Conner had a chance to make a big play and did not capitlize. He had a chance to clinch the game with a big interception but he dropped it. This isn't the first time that's happened, so he needs to work on his hands.
As a complete defense, they had trouble stopping Adrian Peterson in the first half. He constantly ran for 5 or 6 yards and they moved the ball very well in the 1st and early 2nd quarter.
Finally, the coaching wasn't great today, especially in the 2nd half. They were way too conservative in the 4th quarter, running the ball too often. The Colts don't know how to play with the lead, they're too young, so that's where the coaches have to come in and direct them. Aggressive play calling would have won them the game handily. You can't give the opposing team that many oppurtunities to score with under 6 minutes to go.
Besides that, everything else was fairly good.

drive shaft seems to short after engine swap
i swap a 350 chevy into my v6 79 firebird. now i cant get my drive shaft in it. seems about 1 1/2 inch to short. my u joint cap line up will my yoke but i cant get it to go over the yoke and i notice the slip yoke on front is all the way in agaist the trans. i am using same trans 3 speed manual and same rear end thank you.
Short drive shaft
If I'm reading this right your front yoke is in too far, as long as you are using the same transmission mounts, that front yoke should not be in all the way, you have to leave room for movement.
thanks for the reply i ment to long that why the yoke to far in the trans i didn't change the trans crossmember i cant get rear of shaft in rear yoke
Then the transmission must be further back than it was before.....How did the rear cross member line up?
I'm not sure if the 3.8V6 & SBC Engine Mounts are in the same position. Frame Stands may need to be moved forward.
Is the back axle hanging or supported on stands?
If its on stands, move the stands and support only the frame of the car.
You can try using a pry bar to just get the u joint into the yoke. Once it gets clear and set into the yoke it will move back about 1/2 - 3/4".
I tied will axle hang and will axle on stand just will not go in I did have to switch bell housing may be that push the trans back just anuff for drive shaft not fit I guess I will just shorten it I read some post and it does should that hard to do thank for all the help
I repeat......Is the rear transmission mount still in the same position....did it line up?
Drive shaft
I guess the lucky thing is, he only has to cut one end.
If you are going cut your drive shaft, Have a shop do it so they can balance it right.
sorry for the confusion the trans cross member is in the same spot trans mount bolts right up to cross member i cant tell if mount is in same spot on cross member as before because i sand blast then paint the cross member the cross member has a oval hole front to back about inch and half i ment to long on the first post
There may also be more than 1 set of holes for the cross member. It may not be back where it was
Are the mounting (holes, studs) centered on the trans mount? If not, could the mount be reversed?
It doesn't matter we're the cross member is the trans is we're it is I Can move the cross member in an spot the trans doesn't move I have the frame mount for the engine in the holes close to the radiators as far as I can tell there is three different drive shaft
Drive shaft
Everyone is worried what holes he has put it in, why not measure the distance from the tail shaft to the rearend, then the drive shaft he has, that will tell if it fits or not. Then do what you have to to get it to fit either a longer drive shaft or a shorter one.

NBC News: "More than 5 million Americans who didn't have health insurance before have been able to get coverage since September, according to a new report released Thursday."
"The report seeks to answer one of the big questions surrounding the government statistics surrounding the law known as Obamacare — how many people have gained health insurance under the new rules? Early statistics had suggested that many of the people who rushed to buy the plans available on the new health insurance exchanges were just swapping out of other coverage. But the new report suggests the law is having its intended effect of getting people covered who weren't before."
PBS Newshour: "The results are the first indicator of how many uninsured Americans may have benefited from the Affordable Care Act since the insurance marketplaces opened last October. Supporters of the law say it's another reason to be optimistic."Save to Favorites

Is this man playing games?
I know this is a marriage forum, but I posted another topic awhile back, and I appreciate the honest, adult answers that I received, so I hope this post is ok. I have found that most advice forums seem to be full of snarky children who aren't capable of an answer.
I apologize for the length of this post.
Years ago, I had a thing for my ex boss. He wouldn't date me at the time because I was 20 and he was 31. Despite the fact that there was no romance, he took me out anyway. Dinner, movies, theme parks, his house. He never touched me though- and I made my feelings for him very clear. Eventually, we had a falling out and I found a real boyfriend, and we lost touch.
I didn't see him for years, but I would wonder about him. I even found old journal entries where I wrote about him. This past October, I considered trying to look him up. I didn't have to. HE tracked me down this January. He found me through a mutual friend.
We chatted on the phone every day for about a month. He wanted to get together. We're both single. He's never been married, but he did adopt a child a few years ago (non biological) and he cares for a sick parent. His mom.
He was going to meet me out at a bar. I was going to be there with some friends. He invited himself. The day before he was in my area, and stopped to see me after he ran an errand. It was only about 20 minutes, but everything was fine. He's gained quite a bit of weight and went a little white. (hair) I look pretty much the same. I'm early 30's, he's early 40's. He called me twice that evening after I saw him- AND that day he touched me for the first time. He hugged me. He had never done that.
The next day, he canceled on me. He said he had to take care of the ill parent. He told me that he was taking her to the hospital. I was ok with this. After all, I still had plans. He didn't reschedule anything, but he continued to call. Sometimes he'd call 18 times in a day. He send me little texts as well. His mom actually didn't go the hospital until that Monday, and she was there for a week.
Two weeks ago, he decided that he needed to do something with his hair. (I'd be admiring Adam Lambert's hair, lol) He asked if I'd go with him. I said I would. For two days, we discussed it. He also told his kid we were dating. * * * ? Dating? He hadn't even asked me out, and I didn't question it. I have no energy for that.
The day of the hair change, he called to make sure I was still going to meet him. I said I was. An hour before the appointment, he called and kind of tried to talk me out of going. He said he didn't want to make me go out of my way for him. I went anyway. It was fine. He had his hair cut into a trendy cut and colored. No more white. When he was done, he practically RAN out of the salon. He said he had to get home to feed his family. I was halfway across the street, but he said he wanted to hug me. It was a tight hug. Long. The second time the man had ever touched me. He called me as soon as he got into his car, and called again later that night. There has only been one day since January that he didn't call. I didn't ever mention it, but he did. He said he was sick that day. He isn't obligated to call every day, so I don't know why he had to justify it to me?
He is always complaining about his obligation to his mother, but he went out to meet some old friends last week, and she was fine at home by herself. Funny how she just happened to be sick when he was supposed to meet me.
Here comes the fun part......the next day, he called and asked me to go to Vegas with him. He had to go on business. It took him 3 days to convince me. Initially, I declined. I would be staying in the same room with him and his teenage kid. I had never met the kid! I felt odd about it, but he reassured me. He was very excited when I agreed and began to make all sorts of plans. I kept asking him for some sort of flight confirmation, but he kept putting me off. (I was going to pay for own ticket) A week went by........he'd call a few times a day, but no confirmation. Seriously......he needed my damn credit card number! Never asked for it. Last week, he said he may have to cancel- due to the sick parent. I didn't even react. I said, Ok, let me know. That night, the trip was 100% on again. This past weekend......100% on. Tuesday night- canceled! Apparently, he couldn't get the tickets........... and the price kept changing. He had told me that his business had a block of tickets that had been purchased. Apparently, those couldn't be used, so he was going through his travel agent. I told him to bag the idea. I said I'd go another time. He was insisting that he wasn't going either because he was also having an issue getting a flight for his kid. Again , I did not react. I was away from my phone that night. When I came back to it, I had missed calls and texts from him. He thought I was ignoring him. When I did finally talk to him, he was a nervous wreck. He kept apologizing, and saying how he had been looking forward to it, and he kept trying to say I was angry and disappointed. I was just being normal. (Actually, I WAS angry, but I didn't want him to know that.) I told him that I'm sure he'll still go, and that he'll have fun, and that someday I'll go with friends. I said it's no big deal.He IS going and so is his kid. I think he's had his plans all along, and wanted to cut me out of them. If that were the case, why did he ask me? Even after I said no, he kept asking. I even hinted at giving myself an out, but he picked up on it and talked me out of backing out. It was SO nice for the plans to fall through a day and a half before I was supposed to leave.
I think he is afraid that I'm upset with him. He promised to buy me something nice while he is away, and now he keeps asking me about shows, restaurants, and things I'd like to do in the next few weeks. He all of the sudden sounded as though he may ask me for a date.
What is this? He plans this stuff, gets me to agree, then gets out of it! Seriously, why is he doing this? I've never pressured him. I have been nothing but 100% friendly with him. What does he want from me?
I am interested in him. Also, I know one of his relatives, and he isn't married or hiding a girlfriend. He's been single for a while.
