Last night, XH and ENTIRE family shows up to son's game. OW accompanies - dressed all out in school gear - foolish!! Son's team loses on last second shot - so sad. Son comes out very down. We talk and he's trying to keep it together - but he's so angry and frustrated. XH and OW come strolling down the hall. S starts trembling and clinching his teeth. I say - don't displace your feelings from the game. You need to walk away for a minute or keep it together. He walks away. He has spent zero time with XH's family. XH has texted him several time "Hey wanna come over..." Son has not responded.
My former BIL texted me though tonight and said his kids would love to come see me for a while! I broke down - so happy and so excited to spend some time with them.
Many flashbacks today - had a "family" dinner for son's 18th birthday. Both daughters come in and my sister. We had a GREAT time - lots of laughs, just like old times. Just thinking about all that X is missing out on. SO much!!!
It's going to be ok though. It's going to be ok.
