thank you all for you fab advice and support on my last thread i really have to say that it was amazing to have people that knew how i was feeling helping me sort threw and telling me i wasnt being a crazy selfish cowbag.
after all that i did go a bit mental (upset + pregnancy hormones) and said that i would never met dp's ex and that it was not my issues and he would need to sort them out on his own i would not have my feelings marginalized or my childrens because of what was going on (he forgot son's birthday because of issues, after me throwing his daughter a party).
i dont think he has ever seen me that angry and it really did shake him, he went to mediation and told ex this and she was not happy but the guy said it my call you cant force a meeting, your behavior has not been great, why would she want to meet you etc. apparently she apologised etc said she was getting counseling reiterated she just wants to discuss childrens needs etc.
so at the end he asked my dp to ask me if i would come to the next mediation session... so far since last week she has been on best behavior no abusive phone calls etc, dp feels for the first time mediation made progress.
am i right to just stay out of it for my own sanity or should i maybe cave and go to the session and then she cant say that its because she hasnt met me anymore?
i know obviously i will have to have some contact with her but really i feel the new reasonable her wont last and that it is just the lastest tool to get what she wants and soon she will be back to her old ways i want to just limit it to when it has to be like it she phones the house etc. what do you think?
