Crazy ex husbands GF

[justamum1234]

I'm not sure really where to post this, but here's my dilemma anyway.
Divorced for at least 6 years and remarried. Ex husband also in long term relationship with GF. GF has always had problem with me. I think because me and ex have 2 DDs together. 10 & 12. Ex has always been the weak kind. Not assertive.
Anyway they are due to take dds to Kos in summer hols, but gf has said they need to cut their hair. My dds have told me they don't want their hair cut. They are trying to grow it. So I text ex husband to say not to cut their hair and I get the text below back from the gf. I think she has a screw loose. What does one do with this ?

"That's fine. In which case I will need to cancel the holiday. Ask them if they are sure about this. As when this was discussed before the deposit was paid they were fine with shoulder length hair to swim everyday. Let me know by tomorrow morning at the latest. Only the deposit will be lost."

Eh? How long is their hair?

Yep, she’s cracked!!!

Do you know what her issue is with long hair?

Can't you swim with long hair? What exactly happens? She sounds bonkers.

Unless both your kids are called Rapunzel. Then she might have a point actually!

What fresh hell 😩

Is their hair really long, e.g. bum length? Because if it is combing that after swimming etc will be a pain in the arse.

How long is DD hair? The woman sounds potty

You'd have to comb hair after swimming regardless if it's down to their bum or shoulder length 😳

Let her cancel the holiday, because if she's this crazy over hair you don't want her in a foreign country with your children, in case something else sets her off.

That's incredibly odd. Don't respond at all or you'll probably be dragged into a very surreal argument.

Both their hair is just past their shoulders.

Crack on then pet and cancel the holiday but you aren't controlling my dd's hair.

Let me guess OP, do you also have long hair? Anyway, yes, she's bonkers and do ignore her message.

Omg what a nutcase. Call her bluff and let her cancel it!

Let your DD's decide, she's crazy! If she cancels due to hair length then she will look crazy too. At 10 and 12 your DDs can probably manage their own hair.

Meant to redact names - oh no

Can you report your own post?

Jesus Christ, she sounds batshit.

I feel we are perhaps focusing on the hair and not the totally disproportionate threat to cancel a family holiday over a hairstyle

This, she's blackmailing you/your DDs. This needs to be stopped now.

Yes I have long hair

Report your post and mn will change the names

I've reported your post for you OP, hopefully they'll be able to take names out.

Sounds like she is using their hair as a random way of controlling your family situation. Oddball!
