Went over in the morning for our son to open his presents. It was nice. We had a quick breakfast and I played with our son and his new toys for a little then I left. During breakfast, I noticed her staring at me and when I made eye contact, she would look away.
Her uncle called me to wish me merry christmas and asked how I was doing. I said I was fine, that I have accepted it, and am moving on with my life now. He told me he thought she was making a mistake, but in the end, it was her decision. (he also called her an idiot when he first found out). He then said that we need to make sure my son is our first priority. I said "of course" and that we have been cival when it came to our son.
W got me a present (as I did for her). In her card she thanked me for being a great father and for always putting our son first.
Picked up my son from her uncles place (they had christmas lunch there). I did go in even though my family said not to. I guess the way I saw it, was that did nothing wrong and had no reason to be embarrassed. I wished every-one merry christmas with a smile on my face. I did notice they all looked me up and down. This has been the first time I've seen them since we split. Then I saw one of her aunties, and she gave me a big hug, and then looked me up and down and freaked out. She said I looked great. She kept going on about how good I looked (while W was standing behind me) and she asked me what I had been doing to loose the weight etc. I was even surprised by her reaction. I had to leave as she kept going on about it. It felt good though.
She asked me if I wanted some desert as they were getting it ready. I declined. I got my sons stuff, said goodbye to every-one and left. I left feeling good.
No change between W and I though. Would be interested to hear peoples comments.
