Ex-friend update
So guess who has supposedly "moved on" with his life, and yet called me this morning? THAT'S RIGHT, HER HUSBAND. He's got some job now that means he's away on alternate weeks, and he rang me because he knows she can't check his phone while he's away. But the best part? This is supposed to be his week at home, but he told her he's not going back. He doesn't want to live with her parents anymore, but they can't afford to move because she keeps taking all his money to pay her debts, which also means he can't send any of his earnings to his family in India. He's pissed as all hell, and told her he'll only go back for one day this week to see the kids. He also wants to see me - he knows his wife and i aren't friends anymore, but isn't sure of the whole story, all he knows is that she has forbidden him (!) to call me or add me on facebook. He asked me if there's something else going on with her, and I told him I wouldn't know because I haven't spoken to her for so long, but something in his voice told me that he suspects her of cheating. I don't want to be the one to drop that bombshell, but if he calls again and still wants to catch up with me, I'm having coffee with the guy no matter what his bitch of a wife thinks. I didn't catch everything he said to me because the phone line was bad and his accent is pretty indecipherable if you're not face to face with him, but she's obviously trying so hard to control him, and I think he's finally had enough. I stalked her facebook profile (she blocked me, but if I log in as my mother I can still see her page), and I found a post that was a not terribly subtle attack on me - she didn't mention me by name, but it was still pretty obvious. At first I was like, "oh, danger,", because considering how easily I could ruin her life, dissing me publicly is either very brave or very stupid, but now that I know just how much of an upper hand I have here, it might be better to let her continue to dig her own grave, you know? After all, all our mutual friends I've spoken to since her facebook posts have heard what led up to it, and think she's a moron. I'm still seeing The Boy, who she is still in love with, though of course she can't act on it because she's married, and because The Boy hates her, so she's jealous. Her husband is starting to see through her, which is slowly filtering out into the public realm, because she's changed her facebook profile to her maiden name (though she's still listed as married to him). Soon enough, I'm pretty sure he'll tell her that he's been in contact with me, which will leave her pretty red-faced after her "we've moved on from you" email. And all that is on top of the fact that she's terrified of what I could say to him. This does not end well for her, and I'm just a little bit gleeful, because I haven't had to DO anything to make her life hell, she's doing it all by herself. I'm just sitting back and enjoying the show :)
