To which I'm fuming in my head. But waited a bit to respond so I could do it appropriately. This is how the convo went:
Me: you have a home H: yes, but I have to keep it rented so I can give you money. (He is referring to a rental house we have. It was his before we met and he moved in here, can't sell his so we rent it). Me: that's not what I was referring to. H: you mean your house? (Again, I'm fuming because he KNOWS it would annoy the crud out of me when he called it "my" house) Me: it's a house, it doesn't need a possessive pronoun. I moved in 2 months before we met. I don't consider it "my" house. But, yes. H: (after many many minutes of silence) thank you, you are still so kind to me when I don't deserve it. I sometimes wonder why. I have treated you horribly and caused you so much pain. I have messed everything up and my life is a disaster. I am sorry for the pain I have caused you and D12.
I had enough at that point so I changed the subject. He kept getting sad and having a pity party. HOWEVER, he wants to take me and D12 out for food/ice cream next week. That will be the first time he's seen her since BD. Soooo, I think that's good.
THEN he talked about the fact that he is starting to not get along with the guy he's living with. Ooooohhhhhhh man! This may get interesting!!!!
Hope I handled that convo correctly. I let it get to me (sigh)- I started to cry when I got the text of him admitting how messed up his life is. DANG IT!!!
