Hey Lisa.. wow, thanks thats very helpful! To draw a comparison.. when I dont contact really good friends, its just that I am busy, or a bit down and dont want to bother them until I feel better (unless its BFFs, thats ok!). Thanks for that! Its hard NOT to take it personally, but thankyou. And I have a terrible cold!
Of course I still love him and would love to get back with him, but I would settle for friendship, if that were even on offer, which it isnt at the moment! I wonder what he is doing for Christmas!?
Hmm.. very odd MIL writing to me, shes an odd woman and wouldnt step out of her comfort zone if she didnt have to. I just wrote back to her, and it really strikes me how obvious it is she still has affection for me and wants to keep in touch. I was a very warm and caring DIL though and we have been through so much in that 10 year period - like death of her exH and I was totally supportive when her partner of 22 years walked out overnight for an OW. Awful. I was on the phone most days to her for a year, WAY more than my ex was. So she does owe me! I am curious whether she knows about Helen (hmm, maybe not??)
I did email him last Friday and he didnt reply eventhough it was mortgage related, which is unprecedented. I will need to email him in January when they go down again. I feel bad for those who are being adversely affected by the credit crunch, whereas its been a sudden cash bonanza for me!
