WW in MLC in need of advice-Part 2

[Natash]

Thank you Sandi, I like the dialogue you mocked up. I haven't had to use it as I believe WW gets the hint that she has forfeited her welcome and will not be invited.

I had a great weekend. Friday night I got free tickets to a a Whitesnake and Foreigner concert an hour away. It was great and I'm glad I accepted the invitation. Saturday I helped my dad do maintenance on his boat and it's motor before putting it in the lake for the summer. Later on, I found out WW found out (via D7)I had bought a motorcycle. That coupled with me going to a concert (very rare) to see two bands she liked set her bitterness agoing. When I went to drop off my girls after being able to have them for a few hours on father's day, I hugged and kissed them goodbye. I didn't look at WW, let alone speak to her and she came up to the truck window as I began to back out. She snaps " so what did you buy me for a motorcycle, a Harley or crotch rocket or what? I said excuse me? She said " you heard me, that's marital debt and half that is mine and keep the kids out of this!" I said "the bike is like a dirt bike" as she turned her back and began walking away spouting something else. I said " Don't walk away from me while I'm talking. First you mention the bike, then you bring up the kids, what are you getting at? Ww said " D7 said you (natash) said you were doing things mom didn't need to know about and mom is doing things dad doesn't know about". I said " yes, when she first saw the bike she was all excited and was going to stop what we were doing to call and tell you. I told her not to do that and Mom will find out at some point about the bike. Then she said "but we don't keep secrets." I said you are right we shouldn't and it's not a seceret. There are times dad will do things that mom doesn't know about and there are things mom is doing that dad does not know about. (Now I realize there may have been a better way to say and handle this but it's hard for me to answer the questions from my inquisitive intelligent D7 that does not miss a thing without discussing too much, say the wrong thing or sound like I'm talking bad about her mom). At this point I'm acting calm and not reacting at all to my ww getting worked up. Then she says:

"well, I'm not doing anything! I'm not dating anyone, I'm not going out going to concerts (a false statement as she has been to two this year that I know of). I come home and find something to do".

I just smiled and said goodbye as I continued to back out. As I left, I realized I was caught off guard by her confronting me. I've been away from her long enough ilet my guard down. So I told myself, be prepared every time she is around. I also believe she was trying to play the guilt card on me. Oh poor her, she's not dating anyone (I suspect OM may have backed out of the picture some) and she knew I had a new motorcycle to enjoy and went to a concert (which was free but she doesn't know that). Poor her, oh my goodness, waahhhhh! I think what she was trying to communicate is that I'm spending all this money to have fun and she isn't (having fun or spending lots of money). I'm having fun (which has been inexpensive compared to running a home on a single income that used to run on two incomes) GAL and becoming my old self again. I'm more free and happier than I've been in months if not a year. My girls look forward to there time with me and never look forward to going back with Mom so for at the moment I believe what I'm doing is working. I will be better at the end of this journey wether it is with a recovered ww or someone else that I'm better off being with.
