Youngest grandson's birthday party was today. He is so cute, of course! Loves tractors. He had been asleep, was a bit cranky until he (with a lot of help) opened his first tractor present. Eyes lit up like a Christmas tree! So much fun!! So much food and cake. No, I didn't! Had some pepperoni, salami and cheese. Skipped the cake. Well, it was white anyway. A victory, nonetheless.
I'm still aggravated with myself. Such a happy day and I had this creepy jibe because I could just feel my last ex staring at me so much and so many times going out of his way to come near me. Not my imagination. The "flight or fight" feeling happens every time I'm in the same vicinity as him. I can almost feel my skin breaking out in a rash. I'm always hiding behind a smile. We do speak and act civil toward each other. Yes, he is supposed to be at every function concerning my two youngest. And no, he hasn't caused me any harm in the last several years. Still creeps me out. Well, now that I got that off my chest, I feel better.
Onward!!

Hi Carol Vaquera. That is the thing...it has been more than enough time! My kids are grown with kids of their own. Plenty of time has gone by. It is just a nagging body response that I have to stifle every time we are in the same area.

Sorry for you have a creepy ex but the grandson sounds adorable! I am in awe that you could walk by the cake! Kudos!

Kattay, somehow sharing on here eases things. I think it's because you didn't keep it inside, like I did for years. Even though my most abusive ex and I have a truce and do talk occasionally when things come up I still often after a contact with him have nightmares or flashbacks, though less and less as time passes and I deal with it more openly. FYI I do not have any contact with my 2nd ex, no kids no need to and do not want to.

Thanks Gingerk65. Yes, GS certainly is adorable. I felt really good about passing up the cake and ice cream. There were enough people there that no one really noticed. Who wants to hear "Are you sick or something?" :)

I know what you mean wholefoodnut. I still have those nightmares and flashbacks after these family times. Loved his family so I try to pay my respects when the inevitable happens. Can't sleep right for a few nights after each encounter with him. Jumpy. I'm thinking this is just part of my life and have to just deal with it.
