Something that came up tonight. Trying to let go of things and move on, but been dwelling on this particualr fact and not sure if I should react.

Exp left when our child was 2months, other woman involved. I knew he takes DD into other womans company when he has her ( to the park etc, she has a child also) He admitted tonight he has taken DD to stay at her home. I'm so hurt, dont know if to react or not, trying to make an effort to let go. She is only 6 months old.

Tell me what to do

It is probably unreasonable but I feel a baby that youngs shouldn't be away from Mum and especially not with someone Dad has known for 4 months.

He should see the baby without OW being there until it is a serious relationship.

Agree he shouldn't be able to white wash and sugar coat his behaviour, but as someone else said, she's more likely to believe your versions of events than his though if that helps!

Hopefully OMDB- I imagine I'll care alot less by then anyway- but then on second thoughts- i might not, because its a big deal isnt it? I mean, a child will always be curious about why their parents were never together and would want the dull facts. I'd hate for her to think she was the result of a fling- and with the passing of time, it could end up being looked at it in this way by him. Or at least, he may tell her we were never serious about each other, when the reality is very different.

I just wanted to share that I have just phoned my DCs (at dads for weekend)
I was told I couldnt ring the house but put my foot down & said that was just stupid.

my DS(5) chatted away and then asked if I was excited about tomorrow. I asked what he meant & he said because Im coming home....THATS why I can bear losing them when they go away cos I know they view this as their home and know how much I love them

as usual, ex sounded miserable - when he phones during the week to speak to the children, he will chat away quite happily to me....when hes at home & shes in ear-shot, he barely passes the day.
How ridiculous is that.

my ex's GF behaves like the one who has been wronged & is clearly threatened by me - god knows why!

I would be pleased that she is threatned by you, it obviously means she has reason to.
