Beer was good last night and had a good talk with my friend. Yes, mostly about my sit. - but it was good to get some stuff out and get another perspective.
Since WAW has decided not to come over for usual Sunday dinner, I told my S16 that he and I would make dinner together on Sunday for just the two of us, since D18 is out of town for weekend.
WAW texted me today saying she asked S to go our for dinner with her on Sunday and he responded with "here's comes the nasty parents splitting up bs". She then texted that it was selfish of me, since I have him all week and she works almost all the time.
I am a crappy texter, so I called her and said that it was mean of her to consider me trying to make his Sunday enjoyable selfish. I was simply trying to be a good Dad. I said I have no problem with him going out for dinner with her - I want him to spend time with her. He loves her. I said I can make dinenr with him another night. No big deal.
I also said, there is no need to be nasty. A month ago we were out for dinner, holding hands and getting along great. Then we go on vacation and all of a sudden, we can't even be in the same place. That's ridiculous.
I was very calm the whole time, but I think I made it clear that I do not appreciate her sending me negative texts after days of no communication at all.
I think I did a good job of being friendly and flexible, but not being a doormat or appearing clingy or needy in any way.
