Thanks, everyone.
I really am only 5 -10 lbs overweight, NY Clover, and he and I have since talked. He agrees he was insensitive and that canceling the trip was overreacting. I agree I was out of line to cc him on an e-mail and have apologized. In the meantime, Randy Cohen, The Ethicist himself (NY Times and in other newspapers) wrote something so cool and beautiful on a similar issue:
> It is wise to be insanely generous in your romantic life, even when a
> relationship is ending. If there is an ethics of love, it's that love
> transcends ethics. Ethics defines minimum acceptable behavior, but
> love demands the best from us. Take the high road here; you'll be glad
> you did. Nobody ever looks back on their conduct in a romance and
> berates himself for being too kind.
