That was painful to read. Can you explain how this exchange is going to get you closer to friendship ??
And why do you have to be friends with her? I am civil with my ex and get along with him, but we are not friends. He would like to be my friend and so would his OWW, but I don’t think friendship is necessary.
Really though. That exchange was not good. You joke, get offended, get wordy, get insulting. Her opening statement wasn’t even bad. You could have sent a simple “of course, like I always do. But you had to ramp her up and go all over the board from mean, not thinking you are joking, where you can see right through that, to becoming offended....
Seriously, you aren’t going to get closer to civil/friendship, with that!
