I hear ya. what keeps puzzling me about all this BS is the night before the bomb she told a friend of ours that she had been going through my phone at night to see who I had been calling , who had been calling me, and texting. Then this....

It is my daughters b'day Friday and she told me that my W said she would make a cake for tomorrow night because D wants to go out with friends on friday (17, I understadn). My D just told me that the W wants me to buy the cake mix. I will just buy a cake and be done with it. W used to make all the b'day cakes when the kids were younger.

Feel really empty today as i have dropped the rope after doing her brakes. Again, i wasn't very pleasant , happy or upbeat when she left, I was on the phone with a friend of mine. she said thanks again for doing my brakes and I gave her a "yup", and that was it. I wanted her to get the feeling she had put me out, not that I was ecstatic for the brake job because it was for her. I thought that would be the best way to end that conversation, put that little thought in her head.

I posted in my journal last night "I will not be a doormat for her anymore". Keeping busy and waiting for the opportunity to say no to her. Am i being too vengeful thinking this way? I want her back, but I am seeing the errors of my ways of doing things for her and being an "enabler". This is over. I will not give in to her requests and will not be at her beckon call. I am going dark. ince my D said it ws her idea for tomorrow, which I don't think it ws, I will not invite her as it is my house.
