You’re in the driver’s seat vis-à-vis an association, so stop asking if things are OK. This person will do what you say.
You can’t offer to help and then wash your hands of things at the first sign of trouble. See a favor through to the end.
There’s no pleasing anyone today despite best efforts. Take all the time-outs you need and visit your happy place. Tensions lift soon.
The longer you wait, the more likely you’ll be ignored. Seize the moment and make a bid, play, or daring proposal.
You don’t like to be judgmental, but being impartial right now could cost. Heed territorial instincts and defend your turf.
Efforts come up short and you won’t get what you want. Don’t despair. There are other ways and means.
