I sent my xh an e-birthday card! Feeling a bit like St Beatrice of general niceness right now. He seems to like these things
I must say his behaviour is currently extremely odd. My youngest son is travelling some way to see him tomorrow, and xh simply stopped replying to all emails and phone calls from son for the past week, trying to finalise the arrangements. We are talking email, texts, mobile and landline calls to numerous numbers It wasn't until son said 'I must hear confirmation or I am not coming' that a response was finally forthcoming.
Since xh instigated and paid for the trip it all seems very odd. Youngest son is pretty stressed out about the trip, as xh has indicated that he wants to talk after all this time. As son says - is it going to be Dr jekyll or Mr Hyde? He is also ging to tell him he is engaged - didn't realise xh didn't know yet, although he may have picked it up off Facebook in some way (I don't 'do' the alt and my kids do not in any case believe in 'friending' their parents. Which I totally support)
Anyway he has an escape route planned if things get tense. The agreement is no OW on the scene. We shall see. MLCers are very good at disregarding agreements, as we all know. I think it is very courageous of my youngest son, and kind after all the truly awful things my xh has done to him.
Needless to say I am totally supportive of this trip even though it cuts into my vacation time with son and financee (she is going along with him for moral support)
