Hey OF, good to see you again and thanks for taking the time to write and advise. You're like an Ole Friend and I value your opinion.

I have gone dark as much as I can but only out of anger. Last night the whole episode almost got out of hands and I backslid a lot. After her text i called her to talk to DD and she didn't answer which pissed me off so I called again and again back to back and she still didn't answer. I almost texted her back saying 'how about I come pick DD up so you can party all night' but I didn't. I was still huffing and puffing over it when 10 mins later my phone rings and it's my DD saying she's in the car getting ready to go home. It calmed me down after I talked to DD but I'm sure STBX was upset at my phone calling and I probably verified that I'm too controlling...why did I do this? I have no clue some of it was probably ego that she wasn't answering me and some of it was I didn't know how DD was and some of it was the unknown of what she could possibly be talking about for 5+ hours with those people (parents of another kid at my DD's school), are they lawyers? is she trying to get a job where they may work etc etc. Last night was bad, couldn't sleep well all these thoughts running through my mind.

I think I caught whatever DD had, I have a mild fever and sore throat and I was supposed to go mtn biking today.

OF, I'll read your response a few times to let it all sink in a bit. I can advise others but when it comes to my own situation I can't take a step back from it to see the bigger picture.
