BBM - I thought a lot about this and IMO what you do is you fake it. I don't personally care if anyone likes each other or what someone said to someone else. You fake it. You put your differences aside and get through it. You do what you have to do for your child. No if, ands or buts about it. You let the bs roll down your back, you think what you want, you say what you want to your friends, you fake it. You go out in the world, suck it up and do it. If that means that you have to have a plastic smile plastered on your face, you do it. You don't hire different investigators, different search teams, appear on different shows or even the same show at different times. You fake it because as long as you suck it up, do whatever it takes, take the punches, take the hits, take the bitterness, the pain, the anguish, you do it. You don't have to love the other person, you don't have to like the other person, you can actually despise the other person, but in public, to the public, while coordinating search, recue and investigative efforts and for the sake of your child, you put it all aside. You act like an adult.
There are people in this world that I don't like, but I have to deal with them. I fake it. These people would never know how I feel about them because that has no bearing on the end goal.
Two-faced, absolutely. I'm not inviting them to dinner, I'm reaching a goal.
