I had pretty much come to the same conclusion. As expected he did basically everything he could to try to pick a fight. Over and over. Finally I did address it. I started to get a little upset at one point but was able to back off. It was exactly what I said. As soon as I started to get upset he said see we can't even have a conversation. I think he NEEDS these fights to help justify his leaving and guilt. He did take s14. But otherwise I have no intention of talking to him. No way in the world am I going to do another thing that would even remotely give him justification. Time for him to put on his big girl panties and wear that blame himself. One thing he did say which was bs but I didn't rise to - I asked when he was going to get the girls. He said I don't know maybe tomorrow if Dan doesn't work. Dan he works with part time just cleaning up for him. Anyway I said oh he works Saturdays and Sunday's now? ( never ever ever has he in the past) he said well I don't know. I know full well he has every single intention of ditching them for xw1 if the opportunity arises. I did feel a little glad though that it is Friday evening and as of yet there were no plans. Maybe I am too optimistic. I dunno. I have thought about their R quite a bit. I can only hope neither of them DB and will shortly be back in their old habits. Also, I can remember some of his complaints and likely he will remember too. So here's hoping. Also, of course I am sure he is not the great big barrel of fun to be around. So feeling a little better anyway.
