Bit of background!
Ex walked out 13 years ago when children were 5 and 3. He has lived abroad ever since and sees them once or twice a year-although to be fair, he e-mails or phones every couple of weeks. He is in the country at the moment, visiting his parents. Eldest son is off to university on Sunday and we had planned the whole "him and me " day taking him. His university is 4 hours drive away and as this is his first term/year he's taking rather a lot with him! Ex has turned up today and said that he wants to take DS to uni, I want to take him myself and felt unaccountably annoyed with the suggestion so rather brusquely said No, it feels like my job! He is very miffed to put it mildly and I've started feeling guilty. Ex only sees him once or twice a year so not unexpectedly wants to spend time with him, I want to see DS off in our own way ( and I really couldn't spend 8 hours in the car there and back with ex so we could both take him!) but wonder whether I really am being unreasonable!
