So.....he asks me to come and spend the weekend at his house, we'll Bar b Que, watch the world cup..."Remember all the fun we used to have watching the world cup in the past?" he asks.
Seems he's fogotten that he abandoned our son almost a year ago, only seen him 3 times since, that he owes me a lot of money, that just last week he stood our boy up 2 times after promising to show up to see him and of course, the last 3 years of broken hearts.
But, now, its party time, come on over, let the good times roll, we dont need to talk about what's gone on.
So, I want to tell him what I think of his invitation, his denial, his refusal to acknowledge the pain he causes, I want to ask him if he thinks I am just as insane as he is to accept, I want to let him have all the anger inside me....so you know what I did? I let him have it with these 3 words...
"No, thank you".
I reacted differently!
Hoo freaking ray!

Bravo on the recovery!!!
There is no point in jumping in to the pit with them.
I think we eventually get to the point where we know that our words would be a waste of breath and energy. Better to save the energy for something that matters...OUR life...OUR serenity...OUR needs.
You done good...
real good...

Thanks all...I figured if nothing else, at least it will confuse the heck outta him that I behaved like a lady.
THAT is something he hasnt seen in me in a long time.

well Im back trying to behave appropriately. Tomorrow is fathers day..he has not even asked to see our son. Not surprised, just pissed when he tells me he is going to the beach! Well how cool....a day at the beach, on fathers day, without his son.
Ok....trying real hard to maintain my cool. So far...I am. Think I need to go beat up my ironing board again. Relieves my anger. Poor iron board. Didnt do anything to me.
