I am going through a pretty dreadful split with exh. Unfortunately he is unable to financially contribute to the DC, but does have them eow and over night once a week. This means I pay for pretty much everything else.
He wanted more clothes for our DD aged 1, but doesn't want to buy any. Feeling sorry for him and not wanting my DD to go without while she is there, I packed a large bag full of clean clothes for him to keep all the time, not an overnight bag, which I felt I could spare as it were from her day to day clothes. If it's relevant, he didn't say thank you when he was given it which really upset me. He has started to stop returning shoes and clothes that have gone with them in the weekend bag which I have found pretty annoying as ds had nothing but school shoes for a few days. Exh lives in a large messy house and has their clothes all over the place when I've gone round- I haven't wanted to over step my mark and go around picking them up/ tidying up.
Really don't know how best to approach this as I really cannot afford to buy enough clothes for two homes,which I guess would be the least confrontational way of resolving it. I should also say I left a lot of clothes for them at the house when I left, again so there would be things there for them when they were there.
This is the text I received ten minutes ago
For (dds name) I now have tops, lots of winter tights, one pair of shorts no skirts, no leggings and no socks. When you put a bag of clothes together can you please try and put together complete sets/outfits of clothes.
Have I gone mad? Please do tell me if I'm doing something wrong, being in some way unreasonable, if there's something I've not thought of... or if he is the entitled, gob smacking knob I think he might be?
