Hey Whitney,

I just wrote a very long reply, but lost it somehow. I will try to redo the jest of what I said.

It boils down to either they are somewhat confused still and that is why they give us mixed signals, or their hearts are so hardened, that they are simply unconcerned about our feelings. I guess it could even be both depending on the moment.

I try to put myself in their place, but whenever I was done with a relationship, I didn't want to talk, or see the person. I know that when I reached the place that the relationship was over, I did not give the person any reason to believe differently.

Maybe it is wishful thinking that the X's are confused. Maybe they are like they are only because of the children. If so, how good of them to think about getting along with us for their sake, when they were so unconcerned what they were doing to the kids in the first place.

off the subject. I need to go for a while. Is there anyway to save what we are writing so we can come back to it?

Whatever they are doing, it appears to be for their own good only.
