Had to interact with W yesterday regarding S6 schedule this week, as W’s deceased moms birthday is this upcoming Saturday she is hosting some family friends to celebrate her life. This weekend is mine and I have been more than flexible in regards to her planning events centered around her. I expected her to give me an extra day with S6 in exchange so I had him equal, and she couldn’t in her her justify why that would be fair to her.
I didn’t react to her logic, and stayed from in my expectations that S6 get an extra day with me. His interaction was between texts so when I held firm she tried to call me on 3 separate occasions to sort out. I let the phone go to VM and she got madder every time I didn’t respond. I just need to keep it transparent and over text/email as I’ve been burned 4 times by her in the last month from her gaslighting tactics.
I don’t know if I would say W is a narcissist, but geez it’s been so self serving and all about her since BD. I do feel it may be sings of the MLC. Does anyone’s WAW or MLC show these signs? Am I handling correctly?
This is going to be tough week, as not only is W moms birthday remembrance, it also what would be our 10 yr anniversary. I have no expectations, but fear I’m going to be more downtrodden and grieving the loss of MR as it was.
