2nd, I like how you're being a friend to her...not too much just enough to keep her contacting you. Great job on the 180s. May I ask how is your son handling this? My daughter's coping mechanism right now is pretending that daddy is here. A couple nights ago we played hide-and-seek with him (but he wasn't actually there). Weird. Asking because our kids are the same age.
Hey dylis
About my son. It's very weird. It's like he has no clue what's going on. Maybe because he went through this before? I'm pretty much the primary caregiver even though it's "50-50". I've had him since Sunday night and I'll probably have him til the weekend. When he's with me the only time he calls for mommy is when he's having a meltdown. Which isn't too often. When he's with her she tells me he misses me and the day she met her sister I had to come and et them becaused he wanted to see me. I feel a tremendous amount of guilt for this. I feel he needs to see her more often but it is what it is and I'll gladly take this time to bond with him.
About last night. A bit of misunderstanding on my part. She had a girls night out last night and is supposed to come by tonight. I just assumed/had no expectations last night when she didnt call. At least she called today to verify for tonight. I appreciate her calling rather than the usual text.
On a side not I'm glad she had a girls night out. 2 reasons. She needs it and it's one extra night she's not with captain awesome. Tonight will be another plus.
Anyway, I gotta keep my attention/focus on my son and myself, while maintaining PMA when I'm around her. I'm tired of setbacks and would prefer to do whatever it takes to not have another one.
