Hanging On (Saying ILY Pt. 3)

[mtb1981]

W sent me a text last night asking if the kids had any plans tonight. I think she's starting to realize she needs to make plans in advance instead of showing up on my door step randomly. I told her they didn't. She asked if she could take them to get ice cream. I said sure and asked what time. She asked when we would be having dinner so she could take them after that. I told her what time we were eating and she was more than welcome to eat with us if she wanted. Looking back, I wish I hadn't because she sent a text back saying I'm mean and hateful and she doesn't understand why I would invite her to dinner. I never responded after that. 2 hours later she sent me another text that consisted of "???", wanting a response from me. I still did not respond. I guess that was a mistake on my part, but I was just trying to be nice. I know the kids would have liked to have dinner with their mom. And I have no problem with her coming over at a planned time and being civil...
