Convo with my sister today about a house she is hoping to buy. offer has been in a few days with no response. she said if we don't hear today we'll keep looking, it obviously wasn't meant to be. A couple of hours later she heard that the offer has been accepted and the house is theirs. I'm pleased for them. However it got me thinking, is their a good reason why, after 12 months our house has not sold. Almost, twice, and two offers that didn't get off the ground, but no sale. The house sale has been the one constant in my X's "must do" since BD. However, he has done nothing to help the sale along. No DIY jobs, painting, tidying up. Nothing. And no upset when the sales fell through, just, oh well. Suggested renting the property when I saw him recently, but it was a no. He may have married but he is still paying mortgage, bills (including phone and broadband) while neither of us is living there any longer. This is just not normal... Does anyone have any suggestions/MLC reasoning behind this. Or is it still not the right time, and therefore not yet the end???
Secondly I received a bank statement this week for our joint account, which he had frozen over a year ago (without telling me first). I had to text him and let him know he had has a refund from a utility company, and a company expenses payment paid into the account. He said he would deal with it. How I don't know as neither of us can access the account unless we both sign/agree.
then tonight I had a text. "do you want picking up xx" obviously not for me- it was followed by "sorry wrong number". I assume it was for his wife... why did it come to me? No similarity in our names, and its not like he texts me on a regular basis.
Even now all of these "oddities", for want of a better word, can cause the whole situation to rear its ugly head in my mind. There are so many questions their MLC raises that there just are no answers for... and if there are answers the don't always come at the appropriate time, if ever.
