Hello Cadet. Yes, the entitlement attitude is very hard to deal with.
She writes asking me "from her soul" to reconsider moving to a place where S12 and I have family and friends. Says now she only implied S12 can move with me. Tries to tell me how to act and how to feel. Says she can't believe I'm leaving S12.
I should know that the irony of someone who has behaved as she has saying such things is lost on her. This is standard for WAW I know.
Even so, I am keeping PMA today. Still eating right. Coaching S12 through his guitar lessons.
But it is taking effort.
Life is interesting. The day I get my feet under me and restart my journey forward, I get XW saying she wants me and S12 to stay here. I also got a mysterious email from the director of my work to call him. For a few minutes, I was afraid I was fired.
Now today... a bunch of people I work with got laid off including the person I reported to. The director of our group called me personally to tell me I'm OK and I'm getting more freedom to do my work. And I see now that I'll have to fight XW to have the life I want with my S12.
This happens everyday... my situation is not different from others and others survive and even thrive. I do still believe this is all working towards a great something. So many good things have happened since BD.
Now I'm texting with my former co-workers. This is awful for them. It seems I was told I was OK before they all got their walking papers. Almost the entire team is gone.
I'm still here. Still working.
Onward.
