Thanks for coming by. I know most of the stuff is in fun. I've been there and done that before. And yes, I can honestly say that I am better off divorced from my 1st wife. The jury is still out on the 2nd. As you said...one foot in and one foot out. I'll swing by to visit the surviving the big D....but I'm mad that you are all from Michigan and so can have fun together.
Anyway, here's the update.
I did it. I held out until my X called. I'll try to do what some of you do when they give a convo. Here's mine...
me: Hello (answering phone) X: Wow! Long time no hear. You've been silent. Me: I know, you too. X: You must be really mad. Me: No. I'm not X: I was afraid to call because I thought you were mad at me. Me (laughing): No I'm not mad. Where did you get that idea? What have you done that I should be mad about? X: You would know better than me what you're mad about Me: You haven't done anything that I'm mad about (silently thinking except live in your own little world) Me: What have you been up to? X: Nothing much.
The conversation then went to her parents recent trip and I asked about her kids. She never asked anything about what I've been doing, how my kids are, how they did at the state meet, or really anything about me at all. Interesting in retrospect.
I basically ended the convo with "well, I've gotta get ready for tumor board. Wanna come?" I had to ask "What" three times to hear her answer which was "yeah, I'll be there". It's just a joke. She can't go, but I used to ask her if she wanted to back when we had a marriage.
So, not sure what to do now. I don't want her to think I'm mad at her, just too busy having a life.
