Divorce and Acceptance Part 4

[Pax_luv]

Hi there....
Kind of funny and rediculously stupid story to share. But I have to dump it here because I’m like wth????

So I ran into a little snag with a meeting that I had a couple hours north of home. Long story short, there were a lot of things to coordinate and I wasn’t going to be able to pick up my dog from ex today at the exact time that we normally swap. (We swap at 530 on the dot and not a second sooner (rolls eyes) )

Anyway, to manage my time in traffic and the unpredictability of a ton of fires in the area... I decided to train it home but I would get in 15 minutes later than usual. So I asked ex if he could accommodate and let me get the dog a few mins late. .

Of course he couldn’t. (Rolls eyes again)- he has tickets and dinner plans and he can’t help, but I could get the dog in the morning.

I say forget it because a friend of mine volunteered to get him at 530. Stupid me thought I could ask the favor in my moment of struggle. Lesson learned. I should have known. Take care of it myself NO MATTER WHAT.

Anyway.... so my friend goes and gets the dog. She’s never been to my old house and never met ex. I give her the low down on how the swap occurs. So I tell her how ex opens the door and let’s the dog run out and then shuts the door.

So she gets there at 522 and then at 530 he comes out and introduces himself to her! She was shocked because he was acting all familiar and super friendly. My dog was happy to see her and her dog because they are friends so he was extra happy and surprised to see them. So my ex tells her, “ wow- you get a better reception than you-know-who!”

Ummmm what!?!? So my friend is shocked that he would make that statement in front of her- he’s never even met her! Then he says to her “thank you, this works out so much better for me.” Again he’s extra familiar and courteous.

So..... I’m still scratching my head over it. My friend (who dabbles in criminal psych) was like- I think he’s a sociopath. “That was the weirdest thing I’ve experienced. Im still stunned. Just shocked!”


I don’t know about sociopath per se, but mlc for sure. What an odd and very bold interaction from him.
