So, a week ago ex-wife insists on getting together in person to discuss a child issue. We haven't spoken in person for months, and told her can't we text or talk on the phone? She insists so I let her come over and we sit outside and talk.
After we resolve the issue with D13, she starts asking me how I'm doing, what's going on with friends and family etc. and she tells me some of what's going on with her.
She complains about POSOM alcoholism, that he left for a while but came back, and that she wishes she could live by herself. Then she asks if I think we could ever be friends, maybe go out once in a while since she says she has no friends and spends most evenings alone.
Says she misses me, looks at the house and says that with our combined income, we could live well, but that working 40 hours a week is killing her. I was non-committal. It's been 2 years, and I'm feeling much better, but part of me is interested in listening to her, I guess I still have the desire for answers. It's crazy to still want to put the puzzle of why and how together, much less of a desire to do it than a year or two ago, but still there nonetheless. Oh, and she tossed in this unsolicited comment "I don't know if I could ever be intimate with you again". Join the club.
