There is an algorithmic formula for how many responses to a post before the conversation deteriorates. So next time you feel free to be me, realize you were just sucked in to a math equation.

awkward conversations with relatives
Sometimes there is not much more to say when it comes to the cookies. Sounds like she had just enjoyed the conversation and wanted to keep it going... maybe she liked hearing from you guys.
I've been in the OPs shoes. Conversations over the phone with the ex'es were always no and it
was a good thing I did it because my ex had 7 ex girlfriends over the years and as my children grew up, it was bad enough that they had to endure visits with Dad and him introducing the next new girlfriend off to the children. My children knew that they wouldn't have to be subjected to phone calls or visits from Dad's girlfriends where they primarily lived, with me, and that was comforting to them. Now that they are grown, they talk to their Dad, but it's not an incredibly close relationship. But, Dad was the one who brought all that on. He could have been more of a father than prancing around with one woman after the next and not spending more time with his own children.
