The friends I had dinner with last night showed up at my house at 9:30 this morning. They spent hours helping me with the yard. We planted flowers etc - all things that used to be STBX's role to take the lead on. It was great to get the jobs done, but also great to not feel so alone for a change. Watching D19 working with our female friend made me sad. She should be doing that with her mother. I actually cried when they left, because I was feeling so many emotions. Watching them interact they way a husband and wife should made me miss having someone special to share my life with. The whole thing also made me angry that STBX doesn't care about the family any more. She only cares about work and OM/boss.
I know that I am the one living the more fulfilling life, but it still frustrates me that she has no idea what life is really all about.
The same couple are coming back soon so we can have dinner together, much the same we used to on Sundays a couple years ago. How can STBX not miss anything about our life? What kind of person has she become?
