Had some sad moments this week.....ex launched the boat and it just reminded me that he left this time a year ago and lived on the boat until he moved in w GF. The boat was supposed to bring us together when we bought it. OOPS!
Trying to keep open communication is proving to be difficult. I am continually informing him about D17 and school issues, but D17 and her dad want to keep everything secret from me. (D17 has told me her dad told her not to tell me anything!) I sent him a text message the other day asking him something about the house. It was not urgent. He complained about me texting instead of calling (he has unlimited tm so it wasn't about the cost). I told him I thought the tx msg was less intrusive and more respectful (not knowing if he was w GF!). On the flip side he still wants to come over whenever he wants. I was late going to work the other day and he showed up. I said, "I thought you were going to call first". His reply was "I didn't expect you to be home so I didn't think it would matter". I am trying to set up boundaries, but it's a slow process.
