exP and I split 2 months ago. He has had her for one two night weekend and one one night weekend so far. Today (incidentally my birthday) she has gone for four nights. Admittedly I am working night shifts for three of those - I know he is helping me out, not taking her away. But saying good bye to my lovely girl (18 months) hurts so much. That he asked to have for for an extra night, and that it's my birthday - I am glad he is interested, but tonight I just hurt. I want my girl. I feel like saying 'sod my career and my out of hours commitments and my determination to be fair and nice to exP when he wants to see her'. I know it's just because it hurts.
Am I a sad fool with nothing in my life? I don't think so, as have loads planned for the few days. But please tell me this gets better?? I can't imagine feeling much worse.
