The following is a recap of what I told my estranged husband tonight. He said he was just calling to “see how I was”. Forgive the language, some excerpts are definitely x-rated but for good reason. It had been a long 12 hours and I was in no mood to show pity to anyone, particularly him.
ME: you called for what? to see how I was?
HIM: yeah, just wanted to check on you.
(ok, this is where it gets pretty heated on my part)
ME: Oh my fuckin’ Gawd..are you serious?
HIM: well yeah.
ME: Listen..I have had a really long day and I am in no mood to deal with your pathetic shit right now!
HIM: Jesus, sorry I was just trying to be nice.
(that lit the inferno under my ass and off I went for one of the most liberating times in my life! Things got a little fuzzy after I saw red but I am gonna try to be as accurate as possible.
ME: Excuse me? Nice? Since when did you ever try to honestly be nice to me. Oh yeah that’s right, you know I have an attorney and you know I am getting ready to throw your sorry pathetic pitiful ass to the curb…
HIM: Damn, what’s wrong with you?
ME: Oh my Gawd, you just seriously asked my that question?
HIM: Umm, yea. Sorry
ME: Well, I am tired. And to be honest tired of your bullshit. You say that you call to check on me yet you are the reason I almost lost my home twice, you are the reason that I suffered blindly for the last 23-24 years of my life. You are the reason that I am where I am today..stronger and more determined than ever! If I learned one thing from you it is that I have choices and I am going to make the best one yet..dump your sorry mother fuckin’ ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HIM: I am sorry for the mistakes I made but I still love you..
(okay, so this is the moment in which I can feel my blood pressure sky-rocket and I am seeing spots before my eyes)
ME: You have no damn clue what that means. All you know is how to love yourself! You take what you want, you do what you want and hurt others and then expect to say you’re sorry and all will be fine. You are sadly mistaken if you think that kind of lazy, sorry, selfish bullshit is gonna work its magic now. Jesus Christ who in the hell do you think you are?!
HIM: silence
ME: What the fuck?
Him: more silence
ME: Hello?
HIM: Are you sure this is what you want?
ME: Umm, if I knew I was going to take my last breath tomorrow I would pray to God that there is such a thing as a 5 minute divorce and I take me back just in time with no attachment to you what so ever, that way I would never have to worry about having to turn over in my grave.
HIM: yet again, silence
ME: Are you there?
HIM: yeah, damn I guess I really never realized it was over.
ME: Excuse me? What the fuck did you think?
HIM: I don’t know.
ME: G$##&, hello..what fuckin planet are you on? I am soo done.
HIM: I guess so
ME: You are so Gawd damned right this time. It has been over a year and a half since we have been separated, what did you seriously think?
HIM: I guess I was wrong about you.
ME: Yes you were. I am now a raving bitch when it comes to you. One day I will be forced to forgive you because that is what my Creator says I should do, but from now until then you can kiss my ass and find yourself the piece of white trash that you so deserve!
HIM: Fine, I guess I will see you at the attorney’s office.
ME: oh yea, you can’t miss me..I am 10 feet tall and dressed like “Wonder Woman” kiss my ass and have a great night!
HIM: Fine, good-bye.
(the phone disconnects)
ME: Damn that felt good!!
OK, so I suspect this is typical of a contemptuous divorce;However,if I had the time to explain where I was coming from you may understand just how good this felt. He knows now..he finally knows! I feel a touchdown commin’
