Imdi,

Nice hearing from you. I don’t think I’ve read that book; who is the author? I’d like to get a copy.
I agree that not being the one to contact H. does give me a little bit of control over the situation, which is helpful because everything else has made me feel so out of control most of the time. I know you understand that. Mostly now when he calls it has a business purpose (financial matter, looking for paperwork that would be at our house). He doesn’t usually call just to say hello and see how I’m doing. Sometimes I wonder if that is because he’s trying to wear me down; maybe I’ll get to the point where I can’t take this minimal interaction with him anymore and I’ll put this marriage out of its misery. I’m not at that stage yet.
Thanks for checking in.



Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
