Had a decent text message interaction with W this afternoon.
My stepmother is having a small birthday party for one of my nephews today. W never answered as to whether she was going, so I reached out to ask.
Me: Good Afternoon! SM said she never heard from you, so I an reaching out to confirm whether S4 was going to be coming to the little birthday thing for nephew.
W: No we are getting together with my dad, it's his birthday today.
Me: Okay. Thanks for replying. I know it's FIL's birthday today, and SMIL's (stepmother-in-law) is tomorrow. I stopped over at bar (local bar, across from FIL's house) last night for an early birthday beer with him before meeting up with my friends. Have a nice day!
W: You too.
This is the first time she has reciprocated ANY pleasantries since BD. Does it mean anything? No. It was just nice. No mind-reading, no cares about meaning, detachment in progress.
Stopping up at the bar unannounced for something like that would be considered unexpected behavior from me, and follows a previous request from W to be with family outside of obligation. Part of my 180s.
