Thanks sandi. It doesn't scare me but I just don't want it to get stupid. We should be rational parents - but clearly only one of us is right now. I guess I was trying to keep the peace.
H has not had the boys overnight ever. I offered him to stay at our home a few times with the boys and said I would stay out for the night. He has declined.
So I made leaps tonight. H walked by me and didn't say one word. I ended up shooting baskets with him made a light conversation about the boys. There was even a joke and smile on his part. There's a ref that is probably my age. we ended up talking as we were leaving basketball he was talking to my dad and I. H was waiting outside with the boys. He asked me who he was. H the boys and I all walked to the car together. He told me to have a good night and goodbye. That was it. This was leaps for me to put on a happy face. Us walking to the car and talking was just like it was when we were together as a family. If I closed my eyes I would have thought it was 6 months ago that's how easy the conversation was.
I am NOT reading into ANYTHING. Just letting you all know what happened
Side note - I notice H got another tattoo. A pair of cowboy boots. Are you kidding me?!?!?? It is way too soon to be getting a tattoo for her. And it right next to the one covering his whole upper arm for me with my name!!'
