Their views on the whole thing is different then ours. They do not see anything wrong with their actions. They can' t comprehend what we ( the lbs ) have been put through. In an instant that they do, the guilt is so strong that they must twist the truth to justify themself instead of facing it. I feel the same way as you. I can' t be friend with my ex. I do not trust him. I feel like he is setting me up for another bomb. Most time, he is. There is RIGHT AND WRONG in my world / appropriate and inappropriate also. I am not his life partner, nor his friend, nor his mother. I am not friends with the kind of person he has become.
Stay true to yourself Tad. You are a good man. Loyal, honest, caring, hard working, devoted individual. You should not stress over what she thinks.. Imo, she messed up the day she walked away from you.
