Evil exwife ( and I mean evil) has sent a text message to her spy friend slagging me off and accidently (with her fat fingers) sent it to my DP.

Alot of it was stuff the kids must have said and stuff her spy must have gleemed from FB. (Now blocked)

Up until now I have generally remained diginified dispiste the contact barrage of never slagging her off in frontof the child. Responsing to "my mum thinks your a cow" with "its not very nice to use those words so maybe best not repeat unpleasant things you hear"

Well now I have had enough!

I dont want to step parent his kids. I dont even want them in my house and I definately dont want their attuide to rub off on my son.

I am dreading tomorrow. I need to study but think I will just take my son out for the day on my own.

Arggghhhh cant even be bothered to namechange.

I also dont want to focus our new car to suit them or ensure our new house accomodates them. Why should we pay loads extra in rent incase they ever deceide they want to stay in future.

I want to be selfish!

Tomorrow I will be back to my normal self promise- Im not really a bitch

Not sure I can say anything helpful but you do have my sympathy. You wouldn't be human if you didn't feel like this once in a while, it's hard to ignore everything and rise above it all the time.

feeling you dietcoke, don't know what else to say... been uplifted by another thread today (am amazed by this ... in step) but it's a fantasy for most and may make you feel a little so be warned.

but may also help you see that, yes she and they are being arehles and it's so unnecessary, shortsighted and shallow.

Focus on your son, make the weekend about him, not them.

Thanks guys

I have to remember that my relationhip with myself, my ex and my DP is a very healthy one with the occassional blip. It makes me realise that it is DP ex wife who has the issues.

We are going to take action on a divorce over the summer and have mediation to draw up contact. We are fed up with her whims affecting everyone in our household and the stepchildren

Lunch with friends tomorrow followed by beach walk I think, DS will love it.
