I have a 15 month old son with my ex and up until recently we have been co parenting fine. He sees him every weekend and we normally take him to the park together one evening in the week.
However, I’ve started seeing someone. We have only been one 2 dates and tbh I know I don’t even want to be in a new relationship just yet but it’s more for me to get some time to go out and I also enjoy his company.
I didn’t feel the need to tell my ex but when I met up with my date a few weeks ago, I saw his friend in the same pub. I knew he would tell my ex that he’d seen me out with someone but I thought ‘oh well it is what it is’ kinda thing. Later that day I got a series of angry messages from my ex saying how much he hates me, that he can’t believe I’ve done this etc. Meanwhile my ex has already moved on by the way! So I replied saying ‘I don’t care.’ I know that was petty but tbh he doesn’t have the right to be mad at me when I never said anything about him seeing other women, other than to not bring her round our son until he’s sure about her.
Ever since then I’ve been blocked (3 weeks.) My son has not seen his dad and keeps saying ‘daddy.’ He even pointed to a man down the street who looked quite similar and said ‘daddy’ and got all excited. This of course wasn’t his dad!
