I ' m packing already . Actually - and this time I ' m positive it 's not sour grapes talking - this trip turned out to be a lot more fun than it would have been with Mike , I think . Especially given that I ' m fairly sure there was more behind his sudden disappearance from my life than I knew about , it was probably for the best . But enough - I have to go rub on more aloe vera gel .

Question with options to choose from: Was mike expected to leave ?

- His absence was expected and for the best;
