I get the feeling this is going to be another turning point in the road of rediscovering myself. I don't want to make this change, but I feel like my hand is being forced.
Sometimes I feel like I'm being tested by Gretchen. She has known the old me for a long time and knows how to press buttons. Whether she knows she's doing it or not remains to be seen, but she's finally crossed the line.
The cord of being nice, honorable and reasonable has been cut. She has turned into the ex that everyone resents and always describes as "he/she is CRAZY." I don't want to go through all the details, but she obviously has forgotten that we had intentions of being able to work through issues together for the sake of our children. But now, she is on her own. I can't work with her anymore and it's clear she feels that I OWE her for the change in our lives.
Gretchen, I just need to tell you that out of respect for the 9 years we spent together, I did a lot of things that I was never legally obligated to do. While you never asked for them, I wanted to make sure that everything was going to be okay while you adapted to the changes in our life. But now, like a stray cat, you've come to expect this from me as if I was required to do it.
No more. I'm done. Get a job.
