I agree w/Beatrice...he was having a moment of clarity and he thought he would text you. You responded correctly and now you have to let it go. Many times the alien will send a postcard from Mars just to let you know that they are still out there.

Btw, they don't have a clue that their postcards can rock our little world for a short period of time. Their empathy chip is broken so the postcard is just that a note to just say "hey", nothing more. There is no real feeling behind it, so to speak.

Please do not allow this text to get you down...when you look back on it in the months to come, you'll laugh about it...it's just too crazy not to.

Bea and Snodderly -

Thanks! I really like the concept of their "empathy chip" or lack thereof! I hate the fact that it did shake me a bit. I just feel like screaming "what the --- is wrong with you?" Yuck!

Had a great day with the kids - our relationship is getting closer and closer. Blessed!

IB there you go...silver lining. Perhaps that relationship would never have gotten that close otherwise. Focus on the benefits of the suffering instead of the detriments. Glad to hear you had a good day with your kids.

Antonia -
You are right:) They are amazing! I love being with them so much!

Interesting day today. XH emails me - I had our son drop off graduation announcement and party invite. He sends me email thanking me for all I've done and says he sent a check to help with the party expenses. Says he will be glad to send info to his side of the family. I responded and offered appreciation for the check and let him know that I had already sent information to his family.

Reading the email - it was if he was a complete stranger. I had been with this man since we were 18. I really KNEW him. He communicates differently - uses different words. Honestly, sounds a little creepy.

No matter - I responded civilly. I am OK:)

IB,
I'm glad everything is coming together for the graduation and party. You did the right thing in responding to his email. I think you will notice a difference in his attitude now that the dust is beginning to settle. IB, your xh is a very different man from the one you knew. They change completely, right down to the way they talk and write. It's very strange how they become the total opposite along the path of mlc.

You are doing great!

Snodderly, this is sooooo true! W's handwriting depends on whether she's in mlc land or back here on earth...I can always tell that when she writes in her "artistic/creative" script that she is here with us, when I see the "formal/as taught in school" script...then I know she's on the ship...same with her diction....

I think for her she drops into the formal/controlled mode because she has little to no control over her thoughts and emotions when in mlc flip out mode, so she has to find something to be in control of, besides me smile

IB Snodderly is right, and it is my experience also that they become totally different. They write and talk as if there was an invisible puppet in their b-crack. It is the only way I can describe it!

I have just finished an interchange with my xh in which I told him finally that I did not want to hear from him again, because after nearly seven years he had become irrelvant to my life.

He had become the raging monster again, and I am not dealing with this any more. I honestly think he is crazy. Not the man I married, and spent most of my adult life with. An embarrassment to me and to his children, but he does not see it that way. The good thing it no longer matters, except that it is always sad to see someone turn out this way.

You will be fine however.

Sometimes, they even smell different. I've noticed my H has a different odour, not unpleasant, just different. I asked him if he's using a different deodorant, but he said "no, still the same".

Being -
That's so funny you say that - my kids and their friends have commented on XH's odor! Not pleasant! Craziness!

I noticed same. But I try to remember it's her way to deal with things. To be totally different.

The writing makes me laugh. It's more..childish and more like the "girl porn" books she reads. Even the OM is from a novel in some ways. Different smell. I've noticed that the change in looks has subsided last time I saw her. Not in a good way, but that's just me I think. I don't find her attractive but rather looks more like her mother than ever before. In the way she dresses, looks, etc.

For me, it's been differences all along. I could spot various of her friends in the behavior because they were new friends and new personalities.

Just one of the oddities we notice and likely her trying to find her way in life. I wish her well, but do sometimes laugh at the language and the absurdity smile
