Not sure that it's really initiating, but my ex-W did just call. Just to say she's stopping by the house to get her sons game and she'd let the dog out. Not really a big reason to call. She also asked why I was mad at her. Was it because of the song? "I can't even remember what it was". I told her that I wasn't angry at her (I guess maybe my aloofness was too out of character) and then reminded her of her little song. She apologized and said she was just kidding.
For the rest we discussed the car's squeaky brakes. I just had them replaced so they shouldn't be worn out yet. I'll have to see.
I was proud of me. I had her on a phone call that I didn't initiate and I didn't ask what she was doing tonight or ask her to do anything. Pat on the back for me and definitely different for me. More to follow if anything happens this weekend.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. And hopefully you'll all write on Monday how miraculously your ex's were at your door on their knees begging to be taken back (and hopefully you rejected their plea in order to further gain the upper hand )
