I did not allow that to control me, and I am managing that well. But, I have NO desire to speak to STBXW about anything.
Well, someone had to be the adult in that restaurant/party of six scene. That job fell rightly to you and you handled it admirably.

Little bit of a vent there, but that's how I'm feeling. And that's where the anger is coming from.
Who could blame you?
