Never got a call from X to meet stepson for workout. Finally did get a call at 6pm and she said she had a meltdown at work and she forgot to call. I do know that she was at the restaurant next to hers having drinks with people from work. I know this because while I was witing for her to call, I ran some errands up near there and saw her car. At first I was disappointed that she couldn't just call and tell me to get him. If she wants to go out like that, that is her choice and I have nothing to say; but I was waiting for her so my stepson and I could go workout. (I had originally thought that she had had to stay later at work; but when I saw her car at the other place I was disappointed.) Her call last night told me taht she got stuck late at work because the manager and her had a talk; because she was ready to quit and he didn't want her to. I knew that wasn't the whole story based on above; but I kept my mouth shut.
This morning, at basketball, she brought it up again and told me that her parents didn't know; but that after her meeting, 2 of the waitresses (40 and 24) asked her if she wanted to go voer to the restaurant and have a drink. So she did. She said she had one and then they ordered her another. She also mentioned how she and the 40 yr old who originally didn't get along were talking and the other woman asked her what my X got from her ex. My ex looked at her puzzled and the woman said: "I got these!!!" Pointing to her boobs. Anyway, my ex told her a good child support. She also mentioned how they talked to the bartender and 2 guys near them who wanted to hear their conversation.
Well, she also got a call while we were leaving from bball and I was watching my son play at the playground for a few minutes while she went to her house to get our ohter son ready for his game. I was leaving a few minutes later to bring other son to the house. Well, she called to make sure I was on my way and I said to her: "You got a call?" SHe said yes nad never said who...not that she had to. Then when I was at the house and she went downstairs to put in some laundry, she came back up and asked me: "were you looking at my cell phone?" I told her no...she said are you sure? I again said no. She said, because if there is anything you want to know, just ask. I'm not hiding anything. (I wonder if that means there is someone else talkingto her or if she is letting me know not to worry???)
Well, she is supposed to find out if she can get Friday day off so that she can see the kids and we can go out later that night. Many times this has fallen apart.
Lastly, she made a comment about her going for the drink and said: "It's sad that I have to not tell my parents. I told the people it is pretty bad that at 40, I still have people controlling my life." I know that she always felt I tried to; but all I wanted was for her and I to have alone time away from the kids. (Having my stepson, we never got the newlywed time.)
