I stopped in work this afternoon, and when I got home W had GF at our house and they were enjoying some wine together. We all talked for a few minutes and I mentioned that W and I played chess last night. So then the girls decided they wanted to play backgammon.
Neither remembered how to play, so as they stumbled through reading the rules they started to argue, and laugh. Then they texted MMF (millionaire man friend) saying things like "how do you play, the other girl is cheating!" He apparently is as wise as he is rich and replied that he's not getting in the middle of this, he wants to keep both as friends! They thought this was really funny.
I was in and out of the room as I prepared a pizza for us, and they seemed to have nothing to hide. They also reminded me of kids the way they were fighting/playing. Even after GF went home, W engaged with me about this some more, laughing about the silliness of it all.
GF and W were also childhood friends, who met back up a few years ago, and only started hanging out together after W's crisis hit.
