Well, we've had yet another 4 months now of barely any contact and this time around has helped me really just let go of her. I look more forward to starting life over and getting back on my feet than drabbling over what we had together.
The dinner or any other premise of a 'family night' as she and they now put it, is simply for them. They've wanted it for so long. As I've said before, in the bginning last year, even right after her moving out and in with OM, she would still come over and have dinner with us at our house. So, why a year later and obviously with down to zero percent probability of anything would it be a problem for her? Me, I could care less as I have, ya come or you don't, and if you start b/s, you leave, simple as that.
I guess it's a gamble wortha taking. I'm hurt more by the look in the kids faces and their comments about her when she refuses. And to hear from such little minds, "she left you for him, and you stayed even after the divorce, what's the big deal?".
