My LO has just turned two. We had a joint celebration last week. Today the ex took LO and told me he was going out for a meal with two members of his family to celebrate. LO was gone out for the whole day. When ex returns he says LO got lots of presents at the 'birthday meal'. I ask who was there and he lists 10 people - people he knows from work, old friends, family members - all out to celebrate LO's second bday. I ask why he didn't tell me about it and he says he did tell me!! I'm sorry but going out with a couple of family members is not the same as having a big celebration in a restaurant with people I don't even know. It really upsets/pisses me off as ex knows full well he didn't tell me exact plan (he has a big habit of lying or not telling me whole story) and it annoys me he's gone to the effort of planning a whole celebration. We only split up a few months ago, LO is only two and I would never even THINK of arranging a birthday meal for LO without ex. It would be too weird and sad doing it alone. I know people will say this is usual and ex's plan separate birthdays etc but just the idea of a little two year old having a celebration with all these people and I, the mum, is not there and not even aware of it! I'm also sure he told people there stuff like 'I didn't want to come' or 'I was busy" - blatant lies! I really hate my ex for doing things like this and I really wonder how anyone can be like this. I know LO probably had a great time and all but am I right in feeling so upset/amazed this has even happened?
