So W rang back later in the evening to speak to S's, and then asked to speak to me after they had finished.. She did this by asking S6 to put me on the phone after he was finished chatting.. I wasn't going to talk, but I thought I would mirror her interactions to see how it went/goes..

The conversation was 90% general chit-chat (have S's been good, they sound like they are having fun etc), but I took away a couple of comments made by her, and a comment made by S9 after we all had finished talking..

I haven't mind read any of this, and to be honest I'm only posting it here as I am just trying to make sense of the timing more than anything.. TBH, I'm probably just wasting typing time by mentioning it haha!!..

The first comment came about when we were talking about S6's birthday party.. Keep in mind it isn't until mid year but he has been going on about a party for a few weeks now.. She asked what I thought of the idea of having one for him, and I agreed it would be a good thing as S9 had a decent sized one at the same age..

The comment came out of nowhere "OM won't be there and I won't be inviting him".. It was said in an almost happy way, but it definitely wasn't said in a sh1tty or upset way.. Probably just letting me know I don't know..

The second comment came about when I mentioned to W about talking about/mentioning NBF/OM when I was around, and I asked her to please respect the boundary I had asked of her.. She took note of what I said and apologised (sounded sincere too I might add), but the kicker was an out of the blue comment straight after this..

She said "I have never cheated on you, and never wanted to in our M".. Like I said, a nothing comment that could have more substance or just nothing at all.. It was out of the blue, and the conversations we have had lately haven't even gone near the subject.. I haven't even mentioned cheating/affair since early in S..


Nothing of note probably, but I am noticing a bit more of these style of comments coming from W, whether it is me at a further distance, or something from her side of things..


The other comment/pic from S9 was definitely a bit of a strange one given the circumstances.. I'll try and shorten the story but myself and both S's had a photo taken for the local paper a short while ago and I really liked the pic so I purchased a copy of it.. Anyway MIL had also requested a copy from me, and I was going to get one framed for the boys to have in their room at W's so I got MIL's framed as well.. I thought I would do the right thing and get W a copy done for her to put wherever.. we all looked really good and the boys were the main focus so I thought she would have liked it.. I only just gave her a print not framed..

It turns out that she has taken a picture of the photo with her phone (to have on the phone obviously), and has been looking at it a bit.. Once again, probably nothing, but it just seems like strange behaviour.. Am I being a bit dense and missing something to connect the scattered dots??..

Like I said from the word go, none of this actually means anything to me in a thinking sense, but it's more of a journal with a WTF?? aspect (for me anyway) and seeing if anyone else has a clue!!..
