It does sound childish, doesn't it? Well, she called three times last night. First time, I was in the shower. Second time, I told her I was helping my daughter with her school work and needed to go. I was maybe on the phone for a minute and then she called back after I went to bed. She asked why I didn't call her back. I told her that I was tired and didn't feel like it. She said, "oh, I got the picture" and hung up.
She sure has a strange way of showing "done"-ness.
Seriously, I would tell her:
"She asked why I didn't call her back."
A: "Because I have decided that I agree with you that we're "done," so unless it involves our daughter, we really don't have anything to talk about. If it DOES pertain to daughter, then please e-mail or text-message me, and I'll of course respond as soon as I can. Would love to chat, but I'm halfway out the door to something. Talk to you later."
