This is EXACTLY what she told me she wanted, several times now. DIVORCE, for us to be "friends" and CO-PARENTS.
I don't want to be her friend and that is why I worry I am slipping ino the friend zone.
But my inferences from the board are that I have to go through the friend portal to develop any deeper relationship. Correct? Friendly but not friends.
I think I am overthinking it (as usual). I will continue on with what is getting good results - polite, cordial exchanges either in person, text or email. I have had a lot of interaction with her lately
Mothers Day Lunch Facetime chime ins and participation Several texts about kids and tips Several email exchanges about kids and logistics.
No expectations, but for the most part - Monster is back in her cage.
