Bf Can’t seem to let go

My Bf has recently split with his ex, she has her own house (she wants him to hv no involvement with), but yet he is allowing her to still hv a key for his house? Using the excuse it’s for convienience for The child’s belongings even tho they hv equal shared contact. Anyone think this is normal? The child is 3.

@GiveHerHellFromUs the child is completely fine, that’s not my point. My point is I do not feel comfortable going to his house or spending time there knowing she could potentially pop in at any time.

@CalleighDoodle she wouldn’t allow him full custody. Plus he would hv to prove the child is at risk to get full custody!

@TimeforanotherChange I have been with him a year and have asked numerous times for him to get his key back, with the reply of “no it’s for convienience for my son” your right it does bug me. Like I said I made this post to see if it was just me overreacting before I make a decision for our relationship. I feel like he’s not moved on fully from her.

You've been with him a year, they broke up a year ago, and you say he cheated.

I can see why you feel discomforted by this.

And what a catch he is, breaking up with the mother of his child because he wasn't happy with her parenting Hmm

@wildthyme We’ve been together not quite a full year Yet but u get my point. Wasn’t me he cheated with btw.

He left her because she allegedly totally changed after having the child, she didn’t want anything to do with him when he was a newborn. He assumed maybe post natal, asked her to get help, booked her an appointment and she refused all help. Therefore they’re relationship then broke down. ( she has clairified to me when I met him that they hadn’t he right together for a long time and ensured me they were done) as I didn’t want to step on any feet I messaged her and asked if they were completely over.

@Niajade he left her because she didn't cope well with a newborn? What a catch.

How do you know she hasn't been a great parent for 3+ years? You weren't there.

How they co parent is none of your business considering the very short amount of time you have actually been with him.

You all sound extremely immature.

Niajade · 17/11/2019 23:03

@Waxonwaxoff0 obv because this is what he’s told me, and I have every right to have an opinon when his co-parenting is affecting our relationship. It’s not immature to want a little bit of respect whilst being in a relationship. I think it’s great to get on and co parent in a good way that is best for the children, I do it myself my point was where is the line.
