Thanks for the support....I'm trying to better understand WHY I did it...T tries to help me see that little is "accidental" in life and there's a reason for it.

One good thing, though, is that I've gotten pretty good at doing damage control with my ex-husband - setting limits, reinforcing the limits, etc. It used to be grueling and heartbreaking, but I developed decent skills in asserting myself with him. I just hate that my stupidity would be what brings on the need for damage control. I should have known better.

And....the last time I did something similiar....He was picking up our daughter at my mom's house. She lets him in the house to use her bathroom, etc. (He's no longer allowed in my house.)....and my daughter and I were talking about a really funny SNL skit. I invited him to check out the youtube video and we all had a good laugh over it.

Now, that too isn't much of anything....but then, the next thing you know, he's texting me saying "goodnight" and "hope you had a good day" kind of texts....I ended up bringing up a financial issue to get us back on track. No real damage control needed. Hopefully, we're at a place now where this kind of thing can happen without it leading to that awful place.
