My dream run on this issue seems to have come to an end. We had a meeting where I had a personality clash with X&Y's next door neighbour. Now I have received this email:
"You have done a fantastic job in building community among us over the last couple of months.
We don’t really understand what happened the other night but need to acknowledge it and figure out whether/how we can keep working together. Can we make a time to talk about what happened at the meeting on Tuesday night. Maybe we could meet at [a cafe we both like] after work tomorrow.
X&Y"
X&Y"
I have been impatient to get an association formed, and have become sick by taking on too much. The neighbour was supposed to be coming in to help us get the numbers to form an incorporated association. Instead he began to quibble and drag out a minor point in our constitution, talking over the top of everyone. I walked out of the meeting after expressing some anger. I have had difficulty a year ago trying to work with a committee with him on another issue. He seems to effortlessly hijack the agenda and dominate with a voice that cannot be ignored.
I am proposing that he and I meet alone to address our difficulties, and that I agree to meet with X&Y separately.
