Tks GIMA & Gardener! D & I did go with X and one of her better friends & little boy same age as D to a couple of Halloween events today. X's friend was surprisingly nice. X and I got along pretty well. She left for a bit to get her hair cut, but came back afterwards. She even wanted to go and grab a bite to eat afterwards, so we did. D was getting tired so got her back and let her take a nap.
X asked what we were doing tonight that her friend was going to go TorT in their neighborhood and invited us to join them. I said we could after D took a nap.
During lunch we were able to talk some more. X opens a little more nowdays as she can answer in two or three word sentences instead of one word sentences (i.e. yes, no, why, what, etc.)
Funny at lunch I still notice that she is about herself though. We sat outside at lunch bc it was a beautiful day, but the sun was right on our table. I asked if she wanted to move to another that had opened up bc the sun was alot at that table. She did not care to move as she said she was fine there. 2 funny.
I hope the X can see it is nice having a two parent scenrio for all three of us. Maybe I am not so much of a bad guy like she has attempted to convince herself lately. I am all lovey dovey on my D all the time and when I am with X too. It is a bit awkward not giving the X some kind of affection. Does she want me to give her a hug too? Or any kind of affection? should I attempt or would she let me know if I could. What do I do???
