I hate to admit it, but it's true. It was about a year and a half ago. It was pretty funny.
Something weird happened last night..
I haven't spoken to XH in three months. (his choice..I am trying to be a grown up about the divorce but he isn't ready to. )
So, if I need to get in touch with him about the kids, I text him. Once in a blue moon I get an acknowledgement about the text, most of the time I don't.
He takes the kids every Wednesday night. Started to keep them overnight. I go to New Guys after my night class. He knows that since I am not home in the a.m. when he drops the kids bags off. He dumps them on the porch.
Last night, I check my phone before bed.
XH text messaged me "G-night"
WTF?
He knows I am with new guy. He has not initiated any type of call, email text that his has been nice in MONTHS. Almost six months.
He did pick up the kids last night with the Rat's son in the car. He is watching him for the night while she lurks in garbage cans or something..lol
I have to admit..the kid is really cute. My D loves him so when I do see him, I make a big deal out of it because she really loves him. Well, he now asks everyone about "Aunt MTN" (how f-ed up is that? )
So, last night I ran on the porch to wave to him when kids got in the car with XH. He was so excited I thought he was going to leap out of the window.
Anyway, I wonder if that made XH think? Geez, I must be over him if the sight of him with the Rat's kid doesn't upset me..
Well..I just thought that was weird getting a text. Maybe he was texting the Rat and sent it to me by mistake? Who knows.
Between New Guy's XW (she is CERTIFIEABLE..that is a whole other story..she was the cheater, too, and lost her marbles when her great X told her he was done.)
So, here we both are two years and four years (his timeline) later with two very hurt, narcissistic x's. A cocktail for disaster in my book. We spent the better part of last night getting a letter together for his XW since she is doing anything and everything to cut into our time alone. She is constantly saying she has to work . She works at a home store that has weekend and night hours.
So, it is very challenging dealing with all this hysteria and my schoolwork. But the good news is that it's NOT OUR DRAMA. It is very difficult not to get sucked in, believe me, but we do our best.
I met her last week. It wasn't a good scene. After she met me she threw a backpack at New Guy. Thank GOD I was in the car. I cannot get involved but if I was within earshot I would have told her a thing or two. Can't do that. I love his D and don't want to jeopardize our R by stooping to XW's level.
