Does anyone else get really stressed or bad anxiety when dealing with an ex. I am on the verge of sending him the below email but I thought better of it and decided to post it on here.
I bought my DD a new coat just from George £20 in August and now my ex is basically saying it's not good enough and won't last until Christmas. Nothing at all wrong with it. Has this fixation on buying everything from Next. I buy some pieces from there but I buy what I can afford.
I send her to his in an outfit with shoes and a coat etc and he has things for her at his house now as he picked fault with everything I use to send for the weekend.
I honestly don't know how to deal with him.
Dealing with you makes my anxiety so bad. Feel like your constantly looking to criticise and judge me about everything. Choosing to pay living expenses over shopping at Next you look down at me.
I could spend thousands on designer clothing and you’d still find something wrong with it. No one has ever passed comment on how a child is dressed until you. Christ you probably blamed me for G having missing teeth! (DD is missing two upper lateral incisors but it's from his side as the ex's mother had the same thing as a child)
As long as a child is healthy and happy surely that’s all that matters and not all this materialistic stuff you seem to place on it.
Just be kind surely it’s not that hard when I’m the mother of your child and someone you supposedly cared about once.
