[quote=AnotherStanderVery interesting. You've been NC for months, right? Now she reaches out a bit. Hmmm. How did you respond? I would suggest the "friendly neighbor" approach to your communications with her, the long period of NC might have seemed "cold and distant" so if you go the friendly neighbor route now it'll help remind her of who you really are.

The text from the W is as followed: "Hi Hotwheelsaust i'm buying son 19 assassins creed 4 black flag 4 xmas xbox game so we dont double up" My reply (used 24 hour rule, not 48hrs): "Thanks W that was nice of you to let me know"
Straight away I got the reply: "No problem i wasn't sure if we had same idea 4 his bday i have a new backpack put away 4 him and i have a boardgame 4 son21" I did not reply to that text.
Couple of things, our oldest son just celebrated his 21st birthday and there was no communication from her about any gifts being bought or help with the party. The son 19 years hasnt played xbox for nearly a year now (or so he tells me)so in my questioning about games he has told me he has no interest in any of the new games. Therefore I would not have even thought about buying an xbox game. Don't even understand the backpack for the oldest son, he drives to work, has a bag for the laptop when going to Uni, and has a small tablet as well. Also this message came 1 week after the 21st party.
