Thanks Wen, me too. I had really missed them and it was refreshing to know that they did not believe all his lies.

My sitch has been fairly quiet lately. Ex has stopped texting as well as showing up at the house. My youngest told me yesterday after her weekend visit that he is very irritable and has the household walking on egg shells. I absolutely hate it that my children have to be around that.

I am very excited today. I am meeting my ex sister-in-law for dinner. I ran into her at the grocery store several weeks ago and we planned this get-together after 5 years of not seeing each other. This is a good day.

Enjoy your dinner w/your ex sil. Things happen for a reason and I think you both have a lot of catching up to do.

Dinner with ex sister in law was soooooo fun. She brought her husband and kids and we laughed for hours. She sees her brother for who he is and has noticed all the mid life characteristics. She did tell me however that they got engaged about 6 months ago. WOW. I thought it would bother me alot but it only bothers me a little. My ex has changed into someone I just don't even know. She said all he cares about is showing off his things and money. She had very little respect for him. They did not know so many things, such as that OW was married while they were having their affair. Ex had told them that she was divorced. They have tried to cover up all their sins. Ex found out that I was meeting with them and tried to convince them not to have anything to do with me. They told him that I am now apart of their family and he has to deal with it. He then asked them over this Sunday to get the scoop about me, but they declined. We both agreed to keep our conversations private and to just focus on building our relationship. It was simply awesome.

Trusting, I'm so happy to come here today and see that you had a great time. It's good that his sister sees your xh for the man he has become. The mlcer loves to brag about his/her material things and I guess really, that's all he has left. I find the engagement quite interesting because I don't recall you posting much, if anything about it. Guess he's not that thrilled about the situation or he would have been rubbing it in your face months ago.
I find it funny that he wanted to meet up w/them over the weekend to get the scoop on you! Now, that is just too crazy. I hope that you and your family can get together again and have some fun.

Snod, I just found out that he was engaged last night. The kids did not even mention it to me. What a farce that is. Must be so hard to live a lie.

Trusting, You have to remember that they have been wearing masks for a long time and lies will come easily for them. The hardest part is trying to wear two different masks, i.e., one for the general public and one when he is in your presence.
