Quote: I feel an urgency when I read your posts. And I don't know if you are too close to the situation to see yourself. But you want something to happen and happen NOW. And then something does happen, but not the something you by miracle hoped would happen. Then you continue to run circles trying to fix it.
Exactly right. I'll consider myself properly scolded. It was a time not to touch base with ex. She said call every night so I did, but probably went above and beyond. But her normally very timid son went on the giant drop (I sh*t myself on it j/k but I do hate it) and I just had to call to tell her so. The calls while we were away did not seem poorly received and she made about half of them. It's what I did when we met up that was especially stupid. Uggghhh. I am too close to the situation. I still make excuses.
But let me throw this out there. My ex drove 400+ miles to do stuff together. She could have done other stuff with her kids without me. Just something to consider.
Still doesn't change the fact that I do have this urgency that better go away if I hope to have success. Patience.
