Dad going to Disneyland without his son

Your friend was right though, why on earth would you ruin a perfectly good holiday by bringing along the kids? Doesn't make you a bad parent, on holiday now and have witnessed several parents looking like they are having such a stressful time! You are entitled to have a life as a patent and there is nothing at all wrong with leaving the kids with Grandma who probably enjoys the time with the kids.

If the OP is calling this poor woman a Bimbo (who has done absolutely nothing wrong and wtf which decade are we in the 70's) I would bet money that the "bimbo" is secretly calling the OP "Karen".

Better to stay out of other people’s relationshops. Even better not to refer to women as Bimbos.😠

You sound like a hateful and judgemental person. None of this is any of your business

Two things can be true at once you know. His actions are shit but OP loses any moral high ground by being a misogynist.

And this is how you're kicking off your week? Fucking hell, you must be knackered by Friday.

Look regardless about whatever you called that lady. People are more bothered about that. Then what this dad is doing , fair enough People can have holidays that don't involve children. But f Disneyland at Christmas. A bit of a p*, take when you have an 8 year old kid

Yes it's disgusting behaviour from a father but also using the term "bimbo" is disgusting tbh , the "other woman" hasn't done anything wrong as far as I can see?

Are you the ex? If not you are overly invested and sour about the whole situation.

You are coming across as being really mean.

as far as going to Disneyland without children that’s fine, people are allowed to do things without children.

We only know she is " a young, overly made-up, less intelligent than the ex wife, trophy girlfriend" because of the misogynistic stereotype coined by.. you guessed it, men who are "having an affair, leaving your wife and child, and being a shit father". For a woman to adopt this terminology, she has to be a paid member of "boys will be boys" club.
Just because a man is behaving as a shit father and a husband, doesn't mean that we should absolve him of any responsibility for doing so by degrading a woman he chose as his middle-age ego boost. But we don't hear an OP calling him names. Instead, she chose to put the responsibility squarely on the new woman. Why is that?

Regardless of the rights and wrongs of this man’s conduct, your repeated childish dehumanising of the girlfriend makes me think you’d be better off focusing on correcting your own attitudes and behaviour.

Doubtless OP won’t be back to this thread though. 🙄

youve already judged his new gf and do not know the ins and outs of how he parents his child. isnt he entitled to have some fun with his gf wherever that is - whether its ibiza or disneyland? you should stay out of this one

I went to Disneyland with my children and it was fucking awful. Fuck knows why you’d want to go WITHOUT any kids.

Calling other women a bimbo, just automatically makes me think that’s she attractive, and you’re not happy about that.

Why are you this invested in someone else’s relationship? You seem insane. Get a life.

This

Well, I think we’ve found the Dad’s ex wife. Alive, kicking and FULL of internalised (well, not very) misogyny.

This is ridiculous. Please don't call someone a bimbo - it's just nasty.

Also, I have a DS and would very happily go on a solo holiday to Disney - I probably won't because I have full custody so wouldn't have time without deliberately ditching him, but if he regularly had contact with his dad 100% I would go on my own - it's a different vibe when you don't take children. And if I were dating someone, I'd take him!

Sounds like he is an arse. But sounds like you are too. Are we in the 50s to be referring to women as "bimbos?" You are a misogynist, have a word with yourself.

Fuck off,if you're a woman I'm the king of Spain Maria1979.my bum.

Why should he? I've had issues with my ex before but kept them to myself, not everyone wants to air their dirty laundry in public. Maybe he is just a prick, maybe not but focusing so much on someone else's situation that you aren't that close to seems OTT. That's my opinion, you are welcome to yours.

It's got fuck all to do with you. I assume you are using the term Bimbo to be goady. Mission accomplished.

My Ex-H recently went to Orlando to do Disney World and Universal Studios with his partner and without our 3 primary aged kids. It did seem a bit odd to me but 🤷🏻‍♀️

The way you talk about his girlfriend is vile. Rather than criticising others, perhaps you should take a long hard look at yourself.

Predictably (because this is MN) OP you’re being told that your use of the word “bimbo” is unacceptable. Obviously having an affair, leaving your wife and child, and being a shit father is OK. But calling someone a bimbo apparently isn’t. In the real world we all know what a bimbo is in this situation - a young, overly made-up, less intelligent than the ex wife, trophy girlfriend - who the man has got to boost his mid-life crisis male ego. But on MN posters will pompously chastise anyone who acknowledges that such people exist!

I would probably keep quiet though, because it would be awful if his son ever found out. I remember being broken when I heard my Dad had taken his latest girlfriend and her kids on holiday.

I wonder what the 'bimbo' thinks of you?

Blimey op, judgemental much? I think paying less attention to what other grown adults get up to, and less name calling, might help you be a happier person..
