My almost ex-husband, former Buddhist Monk, Enlightened One, is now a carefree and quite belligerent teenager. What happened to that Zen Master? He apparently fell off his pillow.
In our former life, P and I shared a fairly typical domestic life and I had the distinct impression that I was living with another adult. Well post divorce, I think that there is only one adult left in our couple, and its not him. Today, after 10 days of sending emails and leaving phone messages, he finally picked up his phone. He has a rock solid reason for ignoring reality and the rest of the world - he was studying and writing a paper and hasn't had time to answer his phone. Wish that could work for me! As I eluded to above, his monastery days are over, now he is a psych student. And he doesn't DO that responsibility thing any longer. Doesn't fit in his schedule. When asked about pressing financial matters (like paying his bills) - he responds the way any self respecting teenager in a fit does - he simply hangs up.
Problem solved. If he can't hear me, it must have all just gone away.
Oh to be young again......
