Just a little rant!

Please feel free to give me a virtual slap.
I've name changed.

We've been apart a year.
He left me with two small children and took up with his co worker who subsequently ended her marriage.
Every time I think I'm just getting there I am taken a back by them.
Probably immature on my part but I would find it much easier if he wasn't living life so wonderfully with someone who caused so much hurt.

Well after lots of encouragement I decided to start a degree this year, it took a long time to build up the confidence and belief in myself , it gave me a bit of power like I was doing something wonderful and that I was going to better mine and the children's lives.
So someone mentions to me in passing ( you know those people who like to snoop just aggravate you, pretend friends you see in the street etc) that she has also decided to start a degree etc.... Which is okay for her she's sleeping with her boss, gets all the cushty shifts and has his support also her child is split between her father.

I on the other hand get no support, work and have two children who he sees twice a month and am left with an ex who blows hot and cold with me constantly! Were no contact now and have been since mid September, as he had started what u can only assume were mind games, turning up , wanting family days and messaging me a lot etc ....

I know you will all think I'm jealous and perhaps I am , but I had my home, my old job everything turned upside down because of these two and they seem to trump me every step of the way! We all deserve happiness I know but a part of me would like the tables to turn.
Sorry to rant but much better than to bottle it up.

I don't blame you for being annoyed, I would be too. Rant away!

Even typing all that out could have helped a little.

The bastard's.

I hear you - waiting for karma to kick in with ex & his tart & his family who appear to have just welcomed her and her brat into their lives without a second thought.
Hope this thread is cathartic for you

Life isn't fair. Peoples lives are worse I drum that into me every day. It could be worse.
Fact is this at the moment is just unsettling my life.
It's easy to say be strong, I have been strong and civil and even caring to a mean who thought so little towards me.
He's never had to beg to see his kids or had phone calls or emails blocked because I feel like playing god with them, he's never had me telling him he doesn't pay enough and I was hurt so hurt but I realised my children would be hurting too.

It just seems sad that in her thirty years of life she had never started a degree she could of next year or last.. I assume he has mentioned to her that I am and it's a case of anything she can do I can do too!

I'm lucky she hasn't met my children, she hasn't met his family and I am still welcomed by his mother etc and she helps when she can so in that respect we aren't having our noses rubbed in it.
