She is mad at me again.

[FoxTrap]

So she is still mad at me over the camera. She took her engagement ring off and will barely speak to me. But that's not what's she's super mad about it. This is.

I get to spend every weekend with my son. He just turned 10 the other day. This Saturday I won't be able to see him because I have a prior commitment.

So I talked to my ex wife about it. She said he could stay all week with me. So of course I was super excited about it. We have joint custody of him but I usually have so many doctors appointments during the week that I don't get to see him. And during the school year I only see him on the weekends.

He and I were gone all day today doing errands and I had a doctor's appointment. She asked me did I still have to take him back to his mom, which is about an hour away from where we were. I said no because he gets to stay all week.

She instantly became furious and said "Oh so we won't get to see each other all week." To which I replied "No, you can come over every day and see me and him." I should add that my son totally adores her. She said "The last time I was there he said good when I was getting ready to leave." I said "Because he was excited because he had waited all day long for he and I to play a video game together."

My son is special needs, and doesn't understand what he says sometimes. And she knows this. So I told her that I don't understand why she is so angry and that I thought she had already broken up with me because she took all her jewelry off that I had bought her. And that had I known she wanted to spend the night a few nights with me that I would have worked something out.

I told her that she doesn't need to do this today. That today is the day my Nanny died and that she knew she and I were extremely close and how hard this day is on me.

The doctor also told my sister today that there is a possibility that her cancer has come back.

I told her that she didn't need to add more burden to me right now and that she should be giving me a shoulder and support right now.

All she said to that was She thinks we are a lost cause or something like that.

So yeah, I'm upset but can't let my son see it because it will upset him.

Sorry for the long post. I just had to get this off my chest.

That's very sad that she seems to not care about your relationship with your son. That she be what she likes most about you.

I’m sorry you are dealing with all of that. There should be no discussion when it comes to your kids. Period. I get wanting to spend time together but kids come first

This woman lacks compassion and understanding. To be able to spend a week with your son was a wonderful thing. And to not support you on the anniversary of your nanny’s death is an uncaring thing to do. U deserve someone who has the capacity to support you in your time of needs and be there with you in the good and bad times.

run. Fast. Away from her. No one should ever come between a child and their parents. That’s the red flag of all red flags. The fact that she sees your son being present as a reason not to come over is saying everything. That isn’t a shoulder of support, that’s a selfish person. She doesn’t want the package deal and your son has to come first.

Oh, I am so sorry to hear she is giving you a hard time, but I feel that what I said in your last post makes more sense now.

It's another red flag, she appears jealous of your son having any more time with you and seems to want all your attention, time and money.

Please be careful.

Cheers, Midori
