I have been separated from my daughters father for 12 years. He decided to start a relationship with a woman whose father abused me as a child. As a result there was a court order which stipulated her family was not allowed around our child. He, being utterly selfish decided to not see our daughter because it would interfere with his new relationship. Fast forward years of no contact or child maintenance due to pleading poverty and being self employed (a large property portfolio which he rents and a business owner may I add) our daughter is now 15 and has been curious about her dad understandably. She has reached out to him over the past few years with no response and was even ignored in public last year when he walked right past her. Anyway, yesterday he appeared claiming he was upset and wanted to reconnect (I started an investigation into his earnings in April). Our daughter said she wanted to see him and said this weekend, she’s eager of course! He has responded saying he needs time, maybe a few weeks. I am so utterly angry, I will not stop my daughter seeing him but how dare he do that and then say oh I need time! I want to tell him to do one. There is lots more to this. I feel so annoyed and keep thinking he has been contacted about his earnings snd this is the whole reason for this. This may be just a huge rant but can anyone relate to this or am I just an angry ex
