What the hell?!?
First of all, that should be directed at myself. As in, what the hell was I thinking when I answered the phone?!? I should have just let it go to voicemail.
But mainly... Are all men hypocrites?!? Maybe hypocrite isn't the right word. I don't know. Here's the details...
So Jared called and everything was going okay for awhile... Then I started to get upset about something and he started in about how he just wants to be friends. He doesn't want to fight etc and be mean to each other. Okay, fine. So the conversation goes on, and we started talking about goofy stuff like, the fact that my mom stole his gum when she was helping me move out. Then he asked me why his quilt was stuffed into the closet in the living room. I gave him my best guess as to why and he told me that he hadn't found it until 'Little Man' was getting into the closet the other day. *screeching brakes* Hold on! Wait a minute! Little Man is what we called Scuttles, and I still call him that. Scuttles lives with me, and I know for damn sure he hasn't been over there since we moved in with my parents, so who is this other 'Little Man'?
He explains to me that 'Little Man' is his new girlfriend's son. (The one that the two of them decided wouldn't be a good idea to meet Jared, because they didn't want to confuse him. He's not even two.) Then he corrects me that she is not his girlfriend -she's just a friend, that 10 minutes later he adds he cares very deeply for. Oh yeah, they have sex, they hang out all the time, go places together, do things together, and apparently, he watches her kid while she's working two jobs. If she's not a girlfriend, what the hell is?
So, yeah, he takes care of this kid. What the hell? He didn't want to get Scuttles right away because he was afraid I would lose interest. Translation: He didn't want to do any of the work. And Scuttles is just a dog! So what the hell is he doing taking care of someone else's kid?
I know, I know, it's not my problem. He's not my problem. But why would he do all this stuff with/for someone else, and I didn't get treated half as good when I was his wife! And he's given her the title of "friend". How is that fair? That's not right! Whatever. Am I a complete psycho? I mean, does this make sense to everybody else and there is something I'm missing here or what? Please be honest - don't just humor me.
