Hello, this is my first post on here. Was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to deal with my partners ex girlfriend?
Me and my partner have been together for roughly a year and a half. We are buying our first house together and are expecting a little girl March 2020. His ex has always caused problems in our relationship as she is very controlling and everything has to be on her terms. She has changed days and dates he is meant to have his son (who is 3) last minute, she constantly has a go about how he is a part time dad but she goes out every friday night drinking and her parents babysit 4 nights a week for her. She used to ring him at the begginging of our relationship claiming their son was ill and when he would go round he was absolutely fine and she would try it on with him.
She has just found out that we are moving in together and are expecting a baby and has turned nasty and vicious. She is now saying she will stop my partner from seeing his son, says she deserves to know exactly whats going on with us, our moving date, our new address, babies due date. I respect the fact she wants to know her son is safe and wants to know where he is and I understand she may be hurting from this but I feel frustrated, annoyed and very emotional about it all. My partner is a wonderful father, always goes out his way to do what he can to help his ex, buys his son clothes when he needs them as well as paying child maintenance and has regular contact with his son. He is feeling really upset and down by all of this and everytime he tries to talk sensibly about this, his ex flies off the handle and starts swearing and shouting at him. Any advice on how to deal with this would be greatly appreciated as my emotions where already all over the place trying to juggle moving house plus being pregnant, now that there is all this from his ex going on this has made me even more emotional.
