Well, one of my boys has lice. I guess that's my karmic justice for nurturing my bad attitude lately.
Anyway, I sent STBX an email saying I wasn't proud of my behavior and asking if we could find a way to work things out so that they were easier between us. He agreed and said he hoped for the same thing too. (it was much longer than that but I just discovered the lice and now I'm looking at a huge treatment activity rather than crawling into my pajamas and heading off to bed... the bed my boys sleep in with me half the time... sigh...)
I did also ask him to leave more promptly and he agreed to that too.
It sticks in my craw a little to extend that olive branch. It is for the kids. Nurturing a grudge helps no one and is the sort of thing my mother would do. I'll try to be the bigger person.
BTW, Betsey, yes, I would be nicer to the lady who accidentally let her shopping cart hit my car. I'd be very gracious, if she were apologetic. But if she did it on purpose because I drive a minivan rather than a sports car, then no, I'd speak out. To me, that is the difference.
