I feel better. The toughest parent for me was feeling like he couldn’t give a poop if he spent time with me or not, not the inability to do it. And I think he did care. He just got overwhelmed. We had a really nice night last night.
I had to leave before he fully woke up to tend to my door, but he woke up enough to say goodbye and I left him a love note in all the stuff he packed. He got it. He said he’s really going to miss me.He’s going to the middle of nowhere alone and I’m a little concerned. May or may not have WiFi or cell service. My daughter is traveling in the opposite direction for vacation today. She sent me a text telling me she’s really going to miss me too and that I’m the best mom who always puts her first.
I read your thread, J9 about the doctor wanting to marry you. I swore I never saw myself getting married again, but a lot of people have been asking me if marriage is in the future with M, and I would absolutely marry him. It’s kind of complicated with our logistics, and I don’t think he will ever do it again because of how badly he got screwed. But the. Again, he explained to his son what a bonus mom is and a bonus sister. He refers to all of our activities together as “family” activities, and we had something that was wedding cake flavored last night and he said “ have some wedding cake, dear” just a joke, surely, but we may live together as husband and wife one day even if we don’t make it legal.
But we don’t really discuss the future clearly, but we are both going in the same direction. We both said to each other we are in this for the long run. Time will tell what that looks loke
