2 years later it's still not getting easier

Hello Nvrgivup,

Thanks for posting. My heart goes out to you. It is a very difficult struggle.

I just want you to know that it is not easy having a friendly relationship with my EW. Many times I wished we did not talk at all.
As an example; last night my EW and my kids video Skyped me. It was so nice to see everyone but then it left me with an empty feeling today. It left me with feeling resentful in the morning and sad by the end of the day. What kind of a life is this that I get to see my family on my computer.
I am trying really hard to be thankful that I did get to see them as many of you don't even get that.

The people in piecing must have a really hard time. All the negative feelings must come flowing out as they have been suppressed for so long.

Lately I have been feeling like just telling my XW to just leave me alone.
Two nights ago I got a text from her telling me how much she loves the new Taylor Swift CD. I too like TS and have met her. I wrote my EW back agreeing that the new CD was good and suggested a few other artists that she should check out. Of course I never heard back from my EW.

You see how this all goes. My XW drops in and then when I try to spark up a conversation she disappears. That is why I am getting to the point of telling her not to contact me anymore.

Each day is a different one....
