V1olin's new life without wife

[v1olin]

It is starting to get harder and harder to remember the last time I talked to my STBXW. I have been ignoring her pretty harshly for the past 3 weeks I think. I just have nothing to say to her anymore. I feel better and better the more I am away from her. She got me on the phone a few weeks ago and had an issue with our old gas utility bill. I told her to take my name off of it a few months ago and she did. But now the company keeps sending refund checks to me in my name! lol So, she was talking about the issue and I was keeping it as short as possible. She started to get chatty and laughing about her issue and I started to soften up. I realized it and got off the phone with, "I gotta go!"

That really made me realize that she has been living off of my "niceness" and "gentlemanlyness" like a cockroach lives off of nothing but water for weeks and weeks. She does not want me but she wants to be friends. She does not want to be married but she wants us to be good co-parents. Everyone here has heard this crap before! So, I have cut her off for good, no friends, no talking, no laughing, and no co-parenting if I can help it. It is working great for me so far! She feels the rejection and I feel free to improve myself without asking her permission! Those days are long gone!
