Here We Go Again! CatchMe: It's been awhile since I've posted. I still drop in to gain more insight and wisdom from everyone’s support and advice. I’ve been taking it one day at a time since my divorce was final in 2002. I am getting back into hobbies and fun activities I neglected while married. I still have my up and down days like everyone else does. Today is one of my down days. I have not spoken, seen, or received any correspondence from my ex since our last meeting at her attorneys office in October 2002. Well, last night after playing some new games I recently bought for my Xbox and PS2 (which I haven't played in months), I decided before calling it a night to check my work email account from my home computer. To my surprise and shock, my ex had sent me an email from her work yesterday. What a way to start off the work week. She didn't say hello or anything like that. The ONLY content of her email was an employment ad for a job position relating to my field of work that she copied and pasted from the Sunday edition of our local newspaper's website. My reaction...WTF!!! Why did she send me this? Why now? I am not looking for a new job in my career field. As far as I know she does not know what I’ve been doing with my life since the divorce and likewise hers. I thought we moved on. Is she looking for a new job and stumbled upon this job ad and thought, hey my ex-husband might be interested in this. I don’t plan on responding to her email. If I did, all I would write back would be “?????”. Is she not happy right now or regretting her decision to divorce me and trying in some weird way to reconnect. Or just testing the waters to see if I respond. Who knows. The only clues I can gather from her email is she’s thinking of me and she hasn’t quit her dead-end night/weekend job that played a part in the downfall of our marriage. Come to think of it, I had one phone call late in the evening to my house last April from her work on my caller ID with no message left on my answering machine and now this. My heart and head have been reeling since last night. Didn’t sleep well. Hope to sleep better tonight.
I just want to give some small words of encouragement to everyone who has found this great site... better days are within reach.
Thanks for any input.
Take care,
CatchMe
Re:Here We Go Again! Safetykc: Hey catchme, I haven't played my Xbox or Cube in a while either so good for you. Wanted to start out on a positive.
My X, X X X, divorced now pulls that stuff too...no idea why.
I'm'd me today from work. One word..."morning."
I did the WTF question too, then blew it off and ignored it. Just didn't reply.
Suggest you do the same...
Good luck man and hang in there.
Safety
P.S.
Play hard!
;D
Re:Here We Go Again! socialdisorder: Hang in there. I wouldn't wish this kind of situation on my worst enemy.
Re:Here We Go Again! Brian75034: "Or just testing the waters to see if I respond."
yeah, that would be my guess.
Similarity, out of the blue, MY ex sent a mutual friend of ours, my birth certificate, with no note, nothing, zero. We both thought it was the most bizarre thing.
So, try not to dig too deep into it. If she REALLY wanted to check up on you, she would. Little bullsh*t things like that email does not count and deserve ANY reply.
Hang in there!
Re:Here We Go Again! barelybreathing: Ah, the dynamics of the human mind. We will never figure it out.
Perplexing, yes. Fruitful, no.
Just keep on a moving.
