Maybe it is just me who is confused and this is a distinct possibilty, but aren't you divorced? Didn't she want out of the marriage? Weren't you and your kids horrible to her kids? Wasn't this a HUGE sticking point of the M?

Why does she allow her son to spend the night if you are your kids don't treat him and the others fairly? Why are they there what seems to be a fair amount?

Why is she calling all the time? And coming by and spending hours there? And doing work around the house? And why is she at the house when you are not there?

I guess I am completely missing something. But I thought she wanted out of this deal?

My feeling for whatever it is worth, is you guys have never really been divorced, separated or apart from each other. Wasn't the D final within the last six months?





I can't argue with any of that. This is the strangest divorce, because as you said..it doesn't look like one.

But there is a difference now. I feel like she's the one pursuing, which is a pleasant change. She called this morning, just to see what we were doing. Then later to see if her son could come over. When I went to pick him up, she seemed to want me to hang out. She's called since to see about supper. She seems almost disappointed or angry or something at me that I'm not chasing her. Maybe the kiss was supposed to make things different.

Oh well, I don't know Bruce. She rushed this divorce along even though she kept admitting to be confused about it and having second thoughts. Perhaps she's still having second thoughts. I do think things are moving in a positive direction, but given our weird relationship, I don't have a feeling as to whether I'm close to my objective or a mile away. Do you?
