GBM sent me a Happy Mother's Day message...

It was on FB. It was clearly part of a chain. However, I have no children. I do engage with my SSs. I have been a good influence on DH in regards to the boys. I am polite to both BM and GBM when I see them.

However, again, I have no children. And we aren't friends. And she has been a real something to my DH (and even BM and the boys) in the past.

So...why? Y'all, I may be paranoid, but between BM changing her name back to Mrs. Fake DH, her getting divorced but her XH still living with her, BM job hopping but already missing a week of work for being sick, and BM being super nice to DH, I'm starting to feel a little suffocated. A little...outsider-imposed "sister wife-y".

So I'm waiting to see if the buttering-up is for money, sympathy, or nothing at all. I'd love to think that this is just a sweet gesture, but that ain't happening. It takes effort, even minimal, to include me, and I'm perfectly fine not being included. Do they think they'll turn me against DH? Get me to open my pocket book? I may have been raised to be polite, but Momma didn't raise no fool.

Guesses on what's going on? The crazier, the more accurate it probably is.

In my experience, whenever BM starts talking nicely, its cause she wants something

You would be smart to be very cautious. I think your gut is telling you something. Trust it!

Because of these two things, I’m going to err on the side that something could possibly be up. What? I do not know, but I definitely wouldn’t take the bait.

I firmly believe "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the 1st time", credit to Maya Angelou *give_rose*. Go with your gut and understand that "crazy" does not change overnight. I wouldn't think much of this message and just let it go and keep my guard up at all times.

I think you should go with your gut. I have never seen/heard an ex suck up (no matter how lightly they suck...) without an ulterior motive. Or maybe has she found Jesus...?

Nah. I wouldn't trust her.

LMAO

That was repeatedly BM’s shtick. “I’ve made good with god”.

Okay, lady. Hahahaha.

Oh, GBM and BM are CONSTANTLY talking about how much they "need" God for forgiveness and how thankful they are for Jesus giving them second life.

Gag me.

Maybe that's just a thing with crazy BMs? BM (back when she took the girls occaionally) demanded we send clothes for her to take them to church because it's "so important to her!"  But I was confused as heck... I honestly don't believe she can be so "bleck" and have church be "so important" to you... The girls said she's only taken them a few times and ditched them every time...

BioHo has constantly preached about God and Jesus and being a Christian...all while being an adulterous and serial cheater.
