Re:when does it get easier? tatortot0601: I had to speak to him today, i had our 3 year old call him and sing happy birthday. We were actually civil to each other and that makes it harder I think. When I am angry it is easier. Does that make sense? I hide my anger though, I dont want our kids to see that, they dont understand! Everyone says everything happens for a reason, but what good reason is there for all this pain that i feel and what bothers me more is the pain my kids feel by missing him. I just cant find it in me to think there is a good reason for that, my kids deserve better than to have this pain so early in life! :-[
Re:when does it get easier? jimloveless: i know all too well the 17 year old trapped in a 26 year old body routine. i've waited 5 years now for my wife to snap out of it, but it just got worse and worse until she left me for another man. a 21 year old man. but yeah, she would hang out with/flirt with guys anywhere from 19 to 22. I wish i knew what caused it, so i could share it with you.
i think she'll wake up and realize where her life is going in six months to a year. unfortunately, the gravy train does not feel like waiting for that day to happen while she is having extra-marrital sex.
i file this week.
i do wish you well, though. i'm fortunate enough to not have children in the mix.
Re:when does it get easier? tatortot0601: It's just bizarre to me. I am 27 and I would not even know how to have a conversation with a 20 year old kid. I mean he has to buy liquor for half his friends, are you kidding me? That right there should be a sign! It does help to know I am not the only one out there who is struggling with an immature ex!

How would you like a 46 year old wife who decides she wants to be a teenager ;)
Re:when does it get easier? elisioleftalone: Tator,
I wish I could say I read everything in this post, but I'm too wasted. Had a long convo with the family tonight, and needed it. Anyway, tell him to go to Hell if he thinks he can come for the baptism of the kids (as far as the Bible is concerned, the way he's acting, he'll go there first anyway). Look, he's being a juvenille ass (this coming from a juvenille ass, so I know one when I see it) and that as far as the Church is concerned, he's no father.
You are too good for him in his present state. Perhaps when he grows and up realizes he's a father, sure you can be there with/for him, whichever you choose. Until then, know there are great men out there (they are hard to find, sometimes you end up with juvenille asses like us) who would love you and your children.
Love,
