You're right LH, nothing has changed. Hence the lack of updates. She still reaches out once in a while wanting to get dinner together as friends, and I have to keep telling her that's not something I'm interested in.
Aside from that, we really don't have a relationship with each other at all. She just stops by on Fridays to get the dogs, and then comes by on Monday to drop them off. I'm not here when she comes by, so there is no face-to-face interaction at all.
One of the dogs was sick last month, requiring lots of vet visits and texting back and forth about the dog's health issues. Aside from texting about the dogs when necessary, we don't communicate. And I have no idea about what's going on with the OM or with any new OMs. I would be shocked if she's not seeing someone.
I know you constantly say that it could take several years for anything to change with a wayward, if at all. I'm not holding my breath, but I thought the cupcake thing was a little out of the ordinary.
