Great big violin

I feel like I am unintentionally being played like a giant violin. I know he doesn't mean to and perhaps it is in part just not understanding. He cannot seem to make up his mind, first it was this weekend and now it's next. We'd made plans based on this weekend. I gave Kota the week off based on this weekend, because I figured we could get it done once we were done helping him move. (Don't ask me why we just clean much better and much quicker when he's not home). Now he's told the complex of his new move date and so of course they are going to do what complexes do, they are going to put off finalizing his apartment until sometime next week etc. In other words he has unintentionally locked us in to another week. No big deal really except for the fact that as it stands right now; (I haven't spoken with him to try to remedy this just yet, haven't seen him and I refuse to interrupt his work over this.) he'll pay his last bill on his apartment this week and then still not have anything to pay next week.

I'm going to see if I can get him to put $50 to $100 towards helping with the apartment. We don't really NEED it but it would definately make things easier and more importantly a little less awkward. I wish that he would bring it up given that he must realize he's getting a full week scot free; (unless he's done something to break the bank.) and I hate to have to tell him that he's unintentionally making us feel played but I might have to. It only seems to me that the right thing to do, provided he realizes what he's doing would be to offer a little help. That would have made this feel a lot less like being played for a fool.
