With stress at work, and stress of buying a house and it being my birthday - and having had too much to drink I broke NC.  She sent a happy birthday email.  I responded with a thanks.  A few emails exchanging news followed.  A few days ago she asked, via email, if we could meet up.  Her kids, herself and my kids and myself.  I responded saying I would not be meeting up with her and there were no hard feelings and wishing her well.  I guess this triggered her because she responded quite angrily that I was still angry and how sad it all was that I was still angry.  Funny thing is I don't feel angry at all.  I feel guilty that I broke eight months of NC only to trigger her.  I have no doubt she is still with my replacement and things are falling apart. Back to NC again I guess.

Thanks everyone for the supportive comments.  Yes it is true I can claim some credit for not meeting up.  I have never had this before.  I have been discarded before but not like this.  Discarded for another yet she still persists in trying to triangulate.  Plain crazy.
