What is a TDM? I've not seen that acronym before. Terrible Dive Master? Tiny Dive Master? I'm guessing... I assume you don't mean Time Division Multiplexor, which is the only way I've seen that acronym used before.

This is all bull, there are no buddy obligations in real life. Everyone dives solo but close to each other. If another person sees fit to be helpful or watchful, or you choose to be, then it is a win-win. Just don't bet the farm. Most of all, rely on yourself first!
I don't understand why you just didn't "buddy" the DM underwater in that case. Should have had just moved closer to DM and forgot about the chase and games. On the surface you'd excuse yourself about slowing the buddy down and opt out for a new buddy. Buddy system is very fluid.
