Thanks for posting. I know the MLCer tries anything to get as much out of us as possible.
ACJ, good on you that you acted first.
I phoned XMIL yesterday since I have not done it for a while. She told me that she was not well for weeks, that's why she never returned my call. She was even in hospital for check-ups since they didn't know what was wrong with her. It turned out that her problems resulted from stress!
I told her about the money for the car I sent to XH and she suddenly burst into tears. She thought it was a very nice gesture. I told her that I didn't feel comfortable knowing that XH wouldn't be safe on a motor bike.
We had quite a long chat about lots of things. Amongst others she said that she though XH would still love me and that I should tell him I have a BF and see what his reaction would be. (He was always jealous.) I told her that it is said one shouldn't do that. (But then I remembered that is probably only during the "standing" period, and after a D it is probably different.)
Amongst some bad news she was also able to give me some good ones and said that we should finish the convo on that good news.
I went swimming in the afternoon and enjoyed it very much although I was alone. In the evening I meat a GF and we went for an ice cream to my favourite restaurant on the water front.
This morning I replied to XH's e-mail he sent on 27th. I mentioned that A FRIEND would do something for me but I didn't mention the sex of the person. I didn't mention to him that his mother was ill. (I don't know whether to mention it or not.)
He already replied in the afternoon! He gave me some advice and even told me for the first time where he lives, although I wrote that I didn't care to know! So far he didn't react to my writing "a friend would do….".
We have had a super week so far and today I went swimming with my GF again. I seem to be worn out from the sun because in the evenings I don't feel like going anywhere anymore. So I ended up lying in the garden until sundown.
On the week-end I intend to go out to some events and my sister will come on Saturday to stay for a day or two. I hope the weather will still be nice and warm so that we can be outdoors.
I wish everybody a good rest of the week and a lovely week-end.
