Yesterday was a day of messages flowing from old co workers and family on what happened after the company announcement on XH firing was made across 7 states. I had messaged my XH the night of his firing as he did call me right after he got fired to tell me. I asked if he was ok. He gave a sarcastic. i’m great. I said are you alone or is someone with you? He responded , Not alone. Then OW took the phone and messaged. Yes, I am here with him. You want to talk call us. I’m shocked he messaged with her there.
I called and no answer. I responded. i just called and no one answered. I only wanted to check on him and make sure someone is with him and he will be ok as the father of my children. I will check with you both later. She blocked me. Now, Im sure some will think I should not have checked, but 32 years and he did call me within 5 minutes of his firing and I do know him better then anyone else. I was concerned for his life.
Now, I will go back to NC. I showed concern. I stayed classy. I did not impede on their relationship. I included her in my thoughts on contacting him. I can live with that. I just had to be able to live with myself if he does anything stupid.
He did pay the alimony. I’m a little shocked, but pleasantly surprised. I really thought. No job and very distraught he would not think to do it or think maybe he didn't have to.
Now, moving forward again. These last 2 days really have showed me how far I have come. I feel good. I feel good about ME!!
