But I know a lot of people with ex's and NONE of them would ask them to mow the lawn, not even my (X)H who has admitted he loves me.
It's just not something that happens all that commonly after you split up and when my H has initiated friendly contact like that with me, it's because he says he still has feelings (his words), so I would think the kind of interaction Wez has with his XW is very positive.
I know from your posts that you'r hurting a lot, Bruce, as I read your anger in every post.
Just think though, if we never gave our ex's any doorway back in, none of them ever would and some couples DO reunite.
I know a WAW who says she loves her 2nd husband and is happy with him, but she wishes she had tried on the first marriage because hubby 1 was her true love.
It's better to try than end up like her and think you didn't do everything you could to keep your R going.
