Went to the driving range and then to dinner with another nice woman Saturday night. I think we will get together again. Unfortunately, see also lives at the far end of town, seems to be a pattern!
Went to my in-laws house last night for dinner, W and the two younger kids were there, as well. It was good to see then, and get good food. I haven't been cooking much, and eating way too much junk. S14 said that he can take the bus straight to my house on Friday evenings, though I'll still have to fetch S11. He said he'd have to wash his uniform (I think his PE clothes), I said, well, there is a washer and dryer. So W piped in something about the inefficiency of washing only that. She still wants to control, control, control. I muttered something about washing them with other stuff, if there was stuff to wash. But gosh, it's not her business!
I still feel some resentment, I still feel that she has been really selfish. But I'm trying to get through it, it isn't serving any useful purpose. And she probably has similar feelings, though I have no way to know, and it isn't my problem if she is.
Oh, how about this...
The woman I went out with Saturday has a 25 year old son. When he was 20 he started seeing a 35 year old married woman with three kids. She had another (I didn't ask whose it was) and then she divorced her H, and married him. Now, every morning, she gets up, goes across the street to her x's house, takes care of the kids, does stuff around the house, cooks dinner, eats with them and her X as a family, and then after dinner goes back to her new H. I thought I'd heard it all, but now I'm not so sure!
