To be jealous of DS relationship with his dad's gf?

[honeyJD]

My ex has been seeing a woman for about 6 months now. My son is 11 and we share custody 50/50 between us. Tonight was the first time we've all attended a social event together. I was here with DS and then ex and his gf turns up and DS runs up to her and gives her a massive hug, and another one when she left. This has upset me so much, I rarely get hugs from DS now as he's getting to that age. It just hurt a lot. They also text each other, she's said in a text after he'd been ill "hope you feel better today, I've been worried about you" not your place to be worried about my child am I being hyper sensitive?

SM gets the fun parts! if they haven't been together long she won't tell him off for the silly things you & exP will like shoes on the sofa etc
It's awful when they like another woman who you feel is treading on your toes, but look at the bright side, DS has a woman he can turn to if he can't turn to you or exP and that's better than having no one to confide in, a woman who clearly cares about him, a woman who has chosen to be in a relationship with his dad AND him
Find as many plus sides as you can out of this, you are always going to be his mum and he will always need you still. I don't blame you for how you feel though but it will feel better as time goes on.
