Excellent! I recently stopped talking with my son's mother on such a basis having given up lop-sided deals. He s a grown up now and it feels so great to feel his parents' journey is done. We produced him, nurtured him, tolerated our epic misalliance for 25 years, but no more. And I am sure we are both happier. It is one of the essential human experiences to love someone who does not love you back. Sometimes we even start with parents which is a real bummer setting a noxious pattern in flow. We wouldn't choose it consciously but I suspect we need the experience. I grow through finding out what I am not!
