In not wanting to face ow at school everyday? (Sorry long)

Bit of background, I am divorced from ex for 3 years, due to his violence,drinking and gambling. It was only after he left (kicked out)I found out he had been having an affair with his ex wife starting before our 3rd child was born. I also found out he had been gambling thousands secretly in stocks and shares lost everything. I have had to have house repossessed and still owe £100000. At the time of divorce my dad was helping me and the house was signed over to me with huge mortgage but I thought I could downsize until hs2 came along and devalued house and I had to have it repossessed as my dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer and has since died.
I am in a rented house in same small village kids at very small school. I have heard that he is moving her and her kids into his house which is fine, except the kids said they are looking at houses very close to me which would mean her children would be going to same school. I just don't think I can handle seeing her there everyday. They both have been such a destructive force in my life and they have a very entitled attitude. I am in a relationship but he is currently working abroad as I have so much debt that any future plans ie mortgage will fall on him as I can't have a mortgage again thanks to ex
I know what she's getting into as he has not changed, he fits profile of a sociopath. He bankrupted her and attacked her when they divorced!

I can live with her being there just not on my patch so to speak! I also have adhd/aspergers which does not help. I actually feel mentally scarred by ex and hate that to some extent he still controls my life through the children. Help!

The whole marriage was a sham built on his lies and its impossible to deal with a sociopath like him. I have got a court order in place which he continually breaks.

What a vile post ageof Not always easy to judge a person's true character in the early years of a relationship and not easy at all to leave when someone abusive gets their claws into you.

And can you explain what you think the OP should be doing to 'sort things out'. Given that she can't prevent the OW (poor cow) moving in with her ex?

I also know now that he wanted the children to keep me there as my dad was paying for everything whilst he ran his business and was bleeding it dry by gambling. My barrister said he was one of the nastiest people she'd met and his nastiness was never far below the surface.
It has had a huge effect on me mentally as its nearly impossible to believe the lengths he will go to to destroy.
