Early Birthday Gift from XH
Well, of sorts.
I have been sick all week, missed work Tuesday and struggled through it Wednesday - myself and another coworker were both sick so it made for an interesting day, to say the least. The last 30 minutes of my shift, XH calls me 10 times. We aren't even supposed to have our phones on us at work but we all do - so I sent him a quick text that says to stop calling I'm at work. He eventually just left me message saying to call him at his parents home phone number.
Our conversation goes likes this:
He asks when we are going to split our cell phone plan apart. I laughed a little and said "you called me 10 times to ask me that?" He continued to tell me that after we do this, he thinks it best we no longer remain friends. I said "that's fine but I do have to wonder what's suddenly hapened to make you think this?" He tells me that he has met somebody and he thinks they could start dating soon and he doesn't want to go into the relationship with me as a friend because it would be odd. I laughed a little and said to not lie - I know the truth that he is already dating S and asked if it is she who doesn't like him talking to me. He said yes, that he told her we didn't talk any more and that he had to use his parents phone because he forgot his cell phone at her place and she looked through it and saw we talk / text and that he had hit on me via text ... Sounds terrible but it was hard for me to not laugh. He will NEVER learn and I am better off with out him. It was the best thing that I could have heard - happy early birthday to me! He was afraid she was going to break up with him - turns out she didn't - he told me he was going to "lie to get back on the good side then stop lying to her."
Good luck S and thank you! lol
Re: Early Birthday Gift from XH
he sounds pathological
He sounds like my XH. Isn't it funny how once they meet someone they're all about finishing up old business with you? I had served my XH with divorce papers in November 2009 but he didn't do anything about signing them until April 2010 when he and new girlfriend (now wife) were getting "serious." The first thing he wanted to do after signing the separation agreement was split that cell phone bill.
ETA: I'm never having a joint cell phone account with anyone again. What a PITA to change your name and split it up!
He has already called me once today since the phones have seperated. -insert eyeroll here-
Well said!
I was going through some of my photos on facebook that he was/is still tagged in (no, not friends but he didn't untag himself and I am not going to be bothered to do so.) I can no longer click on his name, he blocked me on facebook.
All I can do is smile, I'm so happy to be his ex-wife!
