I received a very nice letter from ex's grandmother. She talked about how much she missed me and "the family". I will probably make an arrangement with her to visit.
It was so nice of her to reach out.
It made my day....

My son's college tuition is due so ex left again on another trip..... His 32nd since our divorce, but who is counting.
I left ex a voice mail indicating that we need to come to some type of agreement regarding son's tuition so son does not get stressed out about this. Ex never called me back.
He is still running like crazy, with no contact between us.

T His behavior doesnt surprize me I believe this takes longer tham we once thought and for some the crises is a new way of life and those may never come back to a sense of responsibility they will continue to spiral down or maintain the sick quality of life they have now adapted to
we are on our own and The less we expect from them the better we will be peace

I just added a post to my thread. I would value your opinion, in a been there, done that,gtts kind of way. Actually, I'd value all opinions. You tell it like it is.
t-my x has taken no responsibility for sons college. NONEand yes the stress is has been hard. i learned after his first semester that it was going to be son and i figuring things out.
i am sorry that he has to struggle trhough this with you -it will build him in a way that we could never imagine. i believe that.
i have found because x gives no support and doesn't claim him on taxes that he has done ok with financial aide because it is my income alone... is that a possiblity for you guys?
again -- i am sorry. if you can act as if he is gone in a way that there is no counting on him financially. his trips will come back to bite him .. it may not be the way we think.. but they will.
again - i am so very sorry.

I will check into that with financial aid. My son stated that one of his financial aid counselors said maybe he should file as an independent.
Ex told my daughter tonight that I live a boring life and I should learn "how to live". I guess that means I need to go on 32 trips in 3 years and max out my credit cards.
I do love my life. I have made such good friends and I am proud of what I have accomplished without ex. Tonight I am really counting my blessings and I know my future holds wonderful things.
