Forgiveness

[Miles Archer]

15. I'm going through some of that too...

...I was on the phone with my ex night before last and at the end of the conversation she said "I am 75% convinced." I thought "Uh oh, I know what THIS means, I've heard that "75%" thing before."

Sure enough, she called yesterday and started talking about some completely unrelated things, and I finally had to ask "What's going on with _______?"

She replied "Nothingggggggggg..." And she said it in a little girl voice which made me realize how much time I'd wasted on the 12:30 AM call the night before (She texted me and said "I know it's REALLY late, but can we talk?"

I keep wanting to give her the benefit of the doubt but she's carved out a little spot in life and is determined to live and die there. It takes too much out of me to encourage her, especially when right now I am in the grand mother of "trials" in my own life. It's like Lucy yanking the ball away from Charlie Brown every time he runs up too kick it. Eventually you decide it might be better to go kick someone else's ball.
