"I hope you are having fun and I'll see you later" would do just fine. Don't reply too soon. Give it some time.

My friend told me that my W was just "checking her position" when she would reach out to me. My friend has been the OM to many. She is going to see where you are, then move away again. Just wants to make sure you are still there. Make sure she still has some hooks in you. Don't be rude, just don't respond right away and don't leave it open ended.


I have three daughters (3, 4 and 13). D3 and D4 haven't been affected at all. I don't think they even know we aren't together. D4 was very happy when W came in with her suitcase before on trip. She said "Mama is moving home!". I don't see any signs of stress. They are happy to go to W apartment and are happy when I pick them up.

D13 took it bad. Begged me to keep seeing her mom and going on dates with her. D13 is my W's daughter, but I have raised her since she was 4, so she is mine too. D13 asks me questions a lot. Asks if we are getting back together. Fills me in on the gossip she hears about W and OM. D13 refused to go to W on her days for a couple of weeks until I made her. But D13 is also a teenager so she is acting differently regardless. She is pushing her limits right now.
