Well, since I couldn't keep up w/Wes deciding to take over the bb today, I'll concede and let him have fun! Instead of posting on every1's thread today, I'm just going to make this one extra long!!!!
Back to the ? on the job sitch. Looks like the fates are working against me and since school starts soon (for k's), there won't be any moving for jobs. I'm not sure what has happened to the last couple; still no word back which doesn't seem good. I've looked over various job opportunities that are close and getting myself geared up to attack them! I can also get back into sub teaching for extra income. But that's my decision on the job sitch!
Ok Gabriel, maybe UD and I will plan a trip that doesn't conflict w/school! And please let me know if there are any good sex stories in Vegas!
Wes, don't know exactly what to say either! You're faster than me today on the bb! Ok, about the ex sitch. I haven't let go of the rope or moved on as of yet. Maybe I'm putting enough slack in it for him to hang himself! haha. j/k.
The OW hasn't been a long term thing yet, so I see it as just a distraction. He's having a rebound R and isn't dealing w/reality yet. So, I will sit back and wait for a while. The interest he has in the other ex and k's is just a checklist for guilt as UD mentions. I've seen too many interactions w/her where she berates him for not taking any responsibility as a father and he appeases her w/a visit and talks w/the k's. I'm going to take the responsibity of s9 as his sole parent and not involve exh the way his other ex does. The ball is in his court.
As far as the degrading issue; my dd from Mich has sided w/ex over all of this and is saying I am being so mean to him!! I am supposed to see her soon as both girls' 25th bday is tomorrow. Problem is, is I don't really want to! (now that is being terrible isn't it?) Not exactly sure how I will handle that yet, but will keep you posted!
I was just venting that I won't take his calls! I will, just had to release the anger first. He is angry over me not talking to him, and I will have to get the pic clear to him that I am not going to argue. I'm ready for his next contact now and plan on the 'playing hard to get' game.
To sum up what I'm doing, in essence I am getting my life on firm and stable ground. It's going to take a while yet, I have a lot of goals here, and I don't need too much of ex's cr*p getting in the way of that. But I still have the door wide open, I'm just working on the inside and not waiting in the doorway! (if that makes any sense!) T
