Why does exh girlfriend feel the need to not just get out the car, but to drag their three month old baby out the car just to drop the kids off? Why cant Exh walk them to my front door alone? Seriously, why?!?!?!

They were half hour late, dinner was ready so I walked out to meet them out the front for handover. They looked kind of stupid standing there when two of them could have waited in the car.

Argh.

Cheers!! It's almost like I'm not trusted to have a conversation with Exh without her. It's been three years fgs. We can have a conversation about our children without her input. But apparently we can't Hmm It's not like handovers take long. Their dinner was well over ready as is done it to be ready for ten minutes after they got home and they were half hour late, hence I wanted them in the house quick to settle to sit at the table - which is why I went out the front to meet them.

I just get so fed up of not being able to have a conversation or sort anything out without her there with her cat bum mouth and fricken opinions.

And breathe. Tea much appreciated. Calming :-)

she's jealous of you I imagine is what it is. Must be a right PITA sometimes. Annoying they were late as well.

lucky dc's it's 5 star service with the tea on table pronto Grin

always good to share on here and well done for your RL composure in the face of frustration. Bloody hard work being an LP at times

Tis only tea on the table pronto as Sunday nights are manic with baths and getting ready for school and them both clambouring for my attention after a night away (they're both under eight)

Jealous? Not sure on that.

I bet she is, seriously. She probably sees you as a threat, you're always going to be the first wife and mother of the dcs.

I think you sound like you're doing a great job and it's so hard those handover times, emotionally draining having to help dcs adjust back and the bedtimes and all that. Must be hard the ex having new baby as well as that's more for you & dcs to deal with. No wonder you felt p*d off feel free to vent some more if you like Wink

That does sound annoying - and a bit strange! And I agree, there's no other reason she'd be doing that other than jealousy of you. She thinks she's asserting herself/ making herself look important around your ex, but she's just making herself look completely insecure and odd!

She feels insecure ( and possibly a bit jealous). Hopefully she will calm down over time.

My XP's girlfriend used to literally follow me round the house when I dropped our daughter off. I think she thought I was going to jump him if I got the chance. They're married now and she's relaxed a lot more!
