Curveball got a sharp, 12 to 6 breaking curve thrown right back at him this morning!
As I've mentioned before W has stated a couple of times that she wants to move back home and I have said no. Well this morning as I'm dropping off kids she says "Can I talk to you? now?". I said sure.
She said she is tired of being 'alone', when she knows she left a loving husband and family and they are right down the street. She said I am ready to 'fix' this, but I don't have any money. Will you help me and can we then work on us? I wasn't ready to lay out a boundary, but I did. I said I can't do anything unless there is ZERO contact between you and him. She had her phone in her hand and said "i already did, I just texted him and told him to not call, text, etc anymore". "I'm done, I screwed up and i want to come home".
I was floored, but I remained calm and assured her that I would help her and that of course we could work on us. As I'm driving to work I'm having 2nd thoughts. Not about working on us, but about her 'fixing' her pregnancy. She is/was adamantly against aborting and as I think about it I'm not so sure that is what I want to do. I thought it was....but then I think about my girls and how wonderful they are. Why not have another? But the 'other' isn't mine....I am happy, I'm scared as heck and very confused right now. Logically this is a decison that one should take some time before deciding, but time is NOT a luxury right now. As you (mc) said...I might think differently once I hold that little boy/girl.
Was this an option for you mc? Anyone else been in this particular sitch?
