[quote=Anonymous]From this snippet I can't tell.  If you were busy with something why didn't you just tell FI, I'm finishing up this.  Why were you deep cleaning a bathroom and FI showering while other people that were helping you move were around?

There are were a bunch of things in moving and some options including paying movers and paying someone to deep clean.  Both of you should be thankful and appreciative of each other in the overall process.  If you were overwhelmed in the moment, maybe not realizing how much longer it would take you to do the deep cleaning etc, that happens, but I think you put FI in an awkward position breaking down in front of your best friend which sort of made him look like the bad guy and that you were Cinderella sweeping the hearth while he is ringing for his towel to be brought to him.    While I understand you wanted a hug, what did you want to happen with cleaning the bathroom?  Did you want him to take over?  Or did you want him to say, that can wait?  Because if it's the later, you should be able to make that decision and have taken a break and gotten back to that later instead of it being a Sophie's choice of continuing to clean the bathroom or take a break to find the toiletries and towelss so you guys can shower.  So from just this one story, I don't think either of you guys handled it well.  I also think there would have been the potential for a better outcome if it had been handled privately without the audience of your friend.[/quote]
