I was over at the house we're selling taking down the swing set (something the buyers did not want) and installing a GFCI outlet on the deck when W called. We made arrangements to get all of us together at a nearby restaurant to have a late lunch and celebrate S's birthday. It was good and S enjoyed his presents and cake - which is the most important thing...
Today I had my monthly appointment with my IC and the session went pretty well. A lot to fill him in on concerning the house sale, the passing of my co-worker and W's recent suspicious activities. IC agreed with my suspicions that W apparently has someone new in her life and took the opportunity last month to enjoy a weekend with him while I had the kids. It's her life to decide what she wants to do with it - I was thrown under the bus several years ago.
What has IC and me baffled is why W is being so secret about it. I have accepted a very long time ago that W and I will never be partners again. The kids' welfare is what I am most concerned about and it appears that W is keeping her personal life on the QT so the kids are not exposed. Maybe she's worried that I might cause problems. There was a court case in NC where a judge today awarded $30M dollars to a woman who sued the new wife of her XH for alienation of affection...
Absolutely not a factor as far as I am concerned. And this is something that I would not pursue anyway. I just need closure on all of this. I still have a lot of life left in me and I believe that there are some wonderful chapters in my life story that have not been revealed. Although I can do well on my own - it would be nice to have someone to share the journey - and who is willing to share her journey with me.
Whatever will be, will be...
