Christmas was a good day overall. Got the kids in the afternoon and had a chat with W for a bit. She brought some homemade goodies for all of us to enjoy. While chatting, she opened up that she and OM are now back together and she knows its "not what I want to hear." He is again amazing and she wants me to be nice to him. I really do not care about it though, and I am certainly not going to be nice if I encounter him again. She inquired a bit about my R and I said it was going strong despite setbacks from GFs ex. She began to cry and told me to think of the kids, and thinks they are in danger--which is not true. She does not want me to be in a R. She questioned more about past romantic escapades of mine and I said it was none of her business. I also told her I had no interest in having her back in my life romantically. She replied with a smug "yeah, right... you know that's not true."
She called her parents and it was the first time they spoke in months. Kids told her we were going to visit them this week and I was getting many questions about it--mainly about why we are keeping it secret from her. She said it would strain her relationship with her parents if we go again. I informed her that is not the case and we are going later this week.
So, feels like this was a touch and go, coupled with the stress of the holidays. I thought it may be.
At the end of the conversation I called a truce and asked for no more BS. She said all the bad stuff was my fault and the truce would be on my shoulders only. I don't know why I expected anything differently.
