So I don’t post on here regularly but when I have I’ve had great support.
I split from my husband almost 2 years ago due to him cheating on me. We have a child together and I have a child from a previous relationship who my ex doesn’t have anything to do with since leaving 2 years ago. He sees his dad so all is well with the kids apart from my soon to be ex-husband and our child with him going to stay with daddy at the weekends. Our son has anxiety but is controlling it well at the moment- it’s been a tough couple of years on this front but I’ve managed him well- daddy doesn’t see the everyday upsets!
Ex-husbands relationship with his ‘floozy’ has been on and off for the past 8 months or so. Our child really doesn’t like her- he doesn’t know she is the reason for us splitting but kids are usually a good judge of character.
Anyway, they split- she’s pregnant and say it is my ex-hubby’s - he’s told me it’s not planned or wanted yet still having her in the house/his bed while our child is there- I’ve spoken to him about the ups and downs and things not being consistent or stable which ultimately ended in a huge row... he’s almost sure the baby is his and so we ‘have to suck it up’ his words!!!!
He has a few other ‘lady friends’ that he has introduced to our child- which I’ve made clear isn’t acceptable.
I’ve also asked him for a divorce and explained if he contests it it will get ugly and expensive! Neither of us have any money for a divorce so it’s going on cc! I just want to be out of the marriage! He has agreed to this BUT I can’t help but feel sad- is this normal? I’m in a new relationship which is amazing but I’ve found myself becoming a little distant with him of late. I think it’s due to stress of asking my ex for a divorce and this baby and what effect it’s going to have on my child.
Am I just being an over thinker or is it normal? I really worry for my child as he’s come so far!!!
Is there anyone else who’s been through similar????
