I did end up talking to him though as I picked my daughter up from rehearsal and she was talking to him on the car's bluetooth. I kept it light and casual. When he says, "just wanted to see how your day was'" I want to tell him EXACTLY how my day went thanks to his sorry butt but instead I said, "Great, thanks!" I kept it short. He was obviously tired and wanted to go to bed. I ended the call first. I said, "well, hope you have a good day tomorrow. Bye!"

uuuugggghhhhhh.



Well done. That is perfect!

As far as the ice-cream story, yeah that stinks. I can remember many times, driving home after my trips to the gun range (my best and favorite GAL activity) where it would hit me again after not being on my mind the entire time I was at the range, "we are getting a D". Nobody has claimed this stuff is easy. As I said, i wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. But as long as you have those moments, and still handle things like you did last night, then you are on your way to recovery. Here is the good news, that recovery gives you the best chance at attracting him back! And it does guarantee that you will be fine, no matter what he decides.

Keep up the good work!
