My Ex is rubbish at being on time & always changing plans at the last minute, he was like this the 13 years we were together - infact that's the way his whole family is.
This means he is often late to collect our DC (a time agreed in mediation) this doesn't bother me too much because it means I get more time with DC - however as my BF points out this is not quality time as I can't make any plans because I don't know exactly what time pick up will be.
BF gets annoyed that I don't comment to EXP that he is late or ask him why. I don't see the point he's not going to change his behaviour for me now.
Yesterday EXP asked if we could change the plans for the weekend which meant I got DC for an extra day. So me and BF discussed what we would do on the weekend - he was a bit put out because we had to change our plans slightly.
So this morning I got a msg from Ex saying he has to pick up DC on normal day just later now because he forgot there is a family birthday.
My first thought was argh BF is going to be moaning about this now and if I don't comment on it will also moan about that.
I'd prefer to keep things as amicable as possible with exp for DC sake and let most of the stuff he does go over my head, but then I get BF saying should say something.
Argh
