Thought I would post finally. I left something out that I did on Wednesday night and I guess I better come clean since it has a bearing. I went to bingo with my X's parents on Wednesday night. I made the mistake of drinking and venting some frustrations. I said that this isn't how divorced people act...they don't let their XW come and go and leave their stuff at the house forever, etc. Well, I found out today that her parents told her I said all that. They told her I wanted the garage door opener back and wanted her to take her stuff out of the house. They kind of piss me off, but it's my fault.
Anyway, to update. Friday night I asked if she'd watch the dog a bit on Saturday. She asked if I'd pick some stuff up for her. That was the extent of interaction. I kept it light and asked how she had been doing. Saturday I got home late and she came by shortly after that, I suppose to let the dog out. We had a nice chat and I gave her the stuff and she gave me a check. Interestingly, she signed it with my last name even though she changed hers back and her maiden name is on the check. Hope they still cash it.
Today she called this morning and asked if I wanted to go to church. So we went together. It was fine. I had a chat afterwards with a nice couple I met earlier and she seemed curious. We went to lunch afterwards and then came back here and hung out. I pretty much ignored her to watch football. Then before she went to the gym I kind of did my stupid usual and did some physical stuff that she didn't rebuff, but didn't work to advance. After she got back we had a nice chat while she sat on my lap.
Then she left and that's it. End of story. I guess she is reassured that I'm not angry at her. This is stupid. If she thinks I am she comes around and is very sweet.
Well, hope you all had a good weekend. I'm going to a movie with a friend. I'll check up on you all tomorrow.
