And so it begins

[4imprints]

I knew that at some point that old DH would come creeping out. He would choose his friends over his kids like always. Though he hasn't been calling or asking to see them much was one thing but I knew there would be a day when he would just clearly make the choice.

He was suppose to come visit this afternoon after DD got out of school (yes school on memorial day - who does that?). DS ended up having to go to Children's to get some testing done for some ongoing issues. It couldn't be preplanned - I had to bring in him the next time he threw up. I called XDH to ask to push it back or to see if he wanted to get DD from school. Didn't answer to I texted him. He didn't respond until 2 hours later. with "ok". I called on the way home from the hospital. Didn't answer. Texted that we were on our way home. He responded an hour later with an "how is he doing". Now keep in mind that they were looking to see if my son would need surgery again. Not some minor thing. He was screaming and crying for hours. But that's all he got from his dad? He didn't even call to try to speak to him? He didn't even try to come over or to go to the hospital to see him? What the f@(&%R is wrong with him?

I knew knew knew that my hopes that this divorce would make XDH a better husband weren't going to come true - but I held out hope.

I. Hate. Him.
