Wanted to add. W had a bag of little crafts and finger paintings from daycare S3 had done when I picked them up. She said that I could have them and take them home. I said ok, your place getting full of them already? Haha. She said no, these are the first ones he has brought home. I'm not reading into it at all, just a nice gesture from W.
It is nice to get behaviour like that, at the same time things like that never stopped. She knows I'm a sucker for sentimental little things from the kids and nice gestures mean a lot to me. Through all of this she never stopped doing things like that which hurts because it feels like she does care, she's just moved on.
The person that you will spend the most time with in your life is yourself, so make yourself as interesting as possible.
