Ex blamed my teen ds for our breakup

[Gutless24]

My 2 youngest 8 and 9 have been at their dad's for the weekend. They have come home and told me dad said you and him broke up because of C. Apprently they were having a chat about it in the car . I have not over questioned them. But I did tell them that's not true. We did not break up because of C. I don't hate ex or anything. But we broke up because of how he is. When we broke up I felt a massive weight lift . As I say I don't hate him. But I could never ever be in a relationship with him. No way.

Do I say anything to him or leave it?

Oh and C knows because ds 8 told him

I decided to say something to him . But I kept it short. I'm proper pissed off though

My ex h blamed his affair on me to our adult children. They shut him down sharpish. Always tell your kids the truth in an age appropriate way.

Who's C?

He's a dick putting that on the kids.
Adult relationship problems remain between the adults.

I think ex actually believes it was because of C though.

I told the kids that it was nothing to do with C and daddy should not be saying that.

Exactly if they asked I would have just said to them. Lots of parents live separately. We are still friends. We both love you . And then made it positive about doing fun stuff at the weekend etc.

Ex was meant to pay maintenance yesterday. I think he's purposely withholding it. I told him not to say stuff to the kids.

And your not gutless,well done in starting to stand up to him, hope you get your payment sorted and he stops being a prick towards you.good luck for the future.

Oh I can't remember why I put that name 😅
Yeah I'm.not even going to ask him for it. Well I will need to at some point. He didn't even acknowledge his birthday gift. Normally he would.
