I probably shouldn't hold my breathe

Paperweight was here visiting the kids today and we got to talking. I actually told him everything that I stated in my last post. He took it remarkably well. Or he doesn't realize I actually meant all of that; I'm not entirely sure which. But I tend to be cynical (no, really. I'm not this upbeat irl you know, lmao) so it's hard to say. I was very surprised by his reaction/response. He actually kept his mouth shut and listened to everything I had to say. Then he told me he loved me. I asked him how he knew that. He said because he thinks about me all the time. That's the first time, and I told him this, that he ever said that or anything remotely that romantic in about a decade and a half.... Now, before you get all smoopy head-over-heels in love with my Paperweight, realize that this man is $350 behind in our agreed upon child support. And about an hour after this little heart-to-heart of ours, he asked to borrow $300 off of me. Hmmm any chance he's going to use that money to buy me yellow roses?
