Hi everyone,
my young daughter has recently started seeing her father. He comes to my home once a week and we all spend a day together. He and I split up when I was 2 months pregnant so this is really her first experience of him. He is a charming and intelligent man and she is currently delighting in her new relationship with him. But he is also an extremely duplicitous character with a psychopathic personality. He loves no one, but pretends he does, as this makes controlling them a lot easier.
I can assure you I am not exaggerating when I call him 'evil'. But as I know he tries to find me on various social media, I'm not going to give any specific details.
Though I have welcomed contact from him, as I want my daughter to have a relationship with her father so she feels 'normal and like all the other boys and girls', I struggle to keep the friendly smile on my face when we see him. To put it simply, he makes my skin crawl and I struggle to breathe properly in his company.
I would NEVER leave my daughter alone with him, or have someone else supervise the meetings. Anyhow, he would never agree to a contact centre.
I just really want some support from those of you in a similar situation and to hear how on earth you cope with it ???
