I’m an idiot

My children wanted to see their dad yesterday. So we did. He was wonderful all day. Helpful. He misses us all blah blah blah. Stupid old me thought he’d be the same today. Oh no. How wrong was I. Criticising the childminder in front of the children. Being I’m patient. Not leaving when asked to because of his stupid behaviour.

Why. This is so hard. I feel so sorry for my kids.

If he won’t leave your house when you want him to, please remember you can call the police if necessary.

He says I’m wasting their time. And it’s his house too 😩 he doesn’t live here now though.

Dont let him into the house again.
Infact, do whatever it takes to move to a place of your own.

He can say whatever he likes but if someone is around you and making you feel uncomfortable, scared or unsafe, then you have every right to call the police. Thats what they are there for.

But do not let him into the home again. He can have the kids outside or at his.

I'm sorry you had this experience, it's so hard when you desperately want to believe what someone is saying Flowers

Don't move to a new place, that puts you at a huge disadvantage in negotiation. Contact a solicitor who an help you navigate this, and ensure that you are empowered to ask him to leave. I'd advise not meeting at the house, but rather somewhere in public where possible. You may also want to set up some ring equipment or similar, such that you have recordings of his behaviour in future. This will also help equip you in negotiations.

Who cares what he says! He's quite obviously full of shit.

He's hardly going to encourage you to call the police on him, is he?

You need him out of your head.

Maybe he's confused? Do you still love him?
