I didn’t expect to hear from my ex-husband on Valentine’s Day, especially after years of no contact. When his call came through, I assumed it was urgent—something about our sons. Given our history, I expected it to be disturbing, so I let him know I was on my way into a medical procedure and wouldn’t be able to talk until after the weekend.
When Monday came around, I texted, explaining I was managing chronic pain and that it would be easier to communicate by email or text. Imagine my surprise when he just wanted to tell me he was getting married.
I’m confused. Why tell me by phone, more than a month after getting engaged? Why Valentine’s Day? It is an odd choice, and not a coincidence, for someone who’s pretty calculating. I can’t know the reason behind his timing. Sometimes, people’s actions leave you questioning intent. I guess it falls right in line with his fiance’s need to message me in Pinterest for reasons I also could not make sense of. Sheesh. Why you so obseesed with me? lol
