Wow Dday!!! What a change a circumstances! I'm so happy for you! You even held her hand..and a hug!.. That is so great! You did a great job being a good ear for her venting...aplause.. ; ) (how do you do that with the smiley faces?)
As for my weekend, I'll try to make a long story short:
I went through a very hard time with my daughter recently, my Ex has been in her life since she was 5 and now she's 15. He's not her bio father, but has treated her like a daughter ya know...Not to get to personal, but she ran away and I had reason to believe that she might hurt herself or run again. She ended up in an inpatient type place for a little while. Anyway, I felt that he was unsympathetic because when I asked if he might write her a note..he said his mind was so far away from her issues, he wouldn't know what to even say..and he was aggrivated that all he wants to do is paint at his new place before the furniture gets there, and he's having to deal with watching our s, while I go visit for the 1 1/2 hours in the late afternoon that they allow. Prior to this incident we also had a long talk about what my hopes were for our R, It was the day after TG and I was still trying to get over the hug thing. He knew I was going through a difficult time with my daughter, and I was sad and I said a hug would be a nice gesture and that's how we kind of got on the topic of our R. He said he feels awkward around me after what has happened. He doesn't trust me, obviously, and feels he's better alone. Then he mentioned that my daughter was not his responsibility and he didn't like all the drama when we were M, and now he is able to just leave. I have to admit that I felt hurt by that comment.
I've kind of changed my attitude towards him and am hurt and I've been kind of cold. I know, it's not the way to woo the Ex, but I can't help but feel bad about what happened.
