i swear i don't know why i haven't smacked my almost-ex in the face yet, i'm fuming. he got a puppy and i'm certain it is just to try and win over the kids so they accept his girlfriend and want to go over to his new house. i can't believe what a child he is being. it's like i married a stranger, i can't even believe this is the same guy. and then i have to hear dc talk about this puppy and how much fun they had on the beach with daddy and the dog and he let them name it. seriously, i am tempted to move far far away, but that will jsut make custody that much more difficult. sorry but i needed to vent while kids are over with their father for another "fun-filled day."

soooo.....sorry but I'm not sure I get it. you are upset because your ex is doing something to try and maintain a relationnship with the kids? I don't see a problem. I get it that you are angry and upset etc and understandably so. But whatever he does to keep the kids in his life is a good thing. [ Reply | More

i just worry that he is only doing this now to win them over, then it will die down - and i am afraid of dc becoming too close to his gf, i just question his motives. i'm being a baby, i know, but he has changed so much and so quickly [ Reply | More

I see. Well, from where I stand, you deserve to feel whatever you feel. And I hope you are wrong about him fading from their lives. A father is so very important in a child's life though. Vent here and then go smile and nod happily about the puppy! ;-) [ Reply | More

thanks, i don't know, i wouldn't be surprised by anything he does or doesn't do these days. he has become an entirely different man than the one i married. he had an affair, left me and the kids for her, moved in with her, all this in a short span of time - and now buying our kids love, it's tough right now bc i am just so angry [ Reply | More

i really don't think this is so terrible. why is it so bad if the kids like and accept his girlfriend, and want to spend time with their father? I think he is doing the right thing by trying to integrate them into his life. You can have "fun filled days" with the kids when you have them, too! [ Reply | More

Yeah, exactly. Start building your own new life. You may find that your almost-ex leaving is the best thing that ever happened to you. [ Reply | More
