The OP is a band-aid: a diversion from the real "homework" that needs to be done.


Are you saying I need to get rid of my band-aid too?

Just got a call from stbx. Seems he found out I was having a little family get together for our daughters 18th bday. He was very upset that he, his new woman and his family was not invited.

I very calmly told him I would call him back later as I was at work and didn't have time to talk.

Now...WTF IS HE THINKING???? I told you all he wanted to be friends. I can't do that. I don't want to do that. If he wants to do something for our daughter then fine by me but he can do it at his place and without me.

I already discussed this with daughter before I made the plans and she agrees. He needs to learn he walked away and now he has to deal with it.

The problem is his mother is divorced 3 times. She was so close with her 2nd husband that they shared a house. She lived in the upstairs apartment and he lived in the downstairs apartment with his new wife. Only thing separating them was a 2 sided lock on the basement door. They did everything together. I think he wants that too since he saw it worked.

EWWWWWWW...creeps me out.

Advice on how to handle this?????

I think he has lost his damn mind thinking you ought to include them. Tell him so. And unless you DESIRE to do otherwise, don't you dare cave on this!

HOW DARE HE!!???


Stand up for yourself, T2, and put him in his place.
That is my advice.

Oh, I'm going to tell him.

I'm just holding my breath before I call him back. I want to be able to word it just right. Hmm...hell no, Are you freaking crazy?, WTF are you thinking?... I want to be nice about this.

Don't want to get into a screaming match. I'll wait til I'm off work today and call him.

I bet I can light your fire!!!!

I will try to be nice but no promises. If he gets snotty with me then I am going to let my mouth open and whatever comes out he will have to deal with.

I may have forgotten to tell you I am a real "b!tch when I want to be. \:\)

Be nice but be firm in this decision.
If he flips, politely tell him about his ass.

Well, he called back. I tried to ignore my cell phone but he knows better than that so he called my work phone.

I told him that I thought under the circumstances that it would be better for us to just do things with our own families. That way no one feels awkward. (I was very nice about it)

His response was his apartment is not big enough to have his family in (his stepmom is rather large and his apartment is the size of a cracker box) and since he was still making the house payment that he should be able to do what he wanted at the house. My tongue is bleeding from biting on it from that. One more month and the house is MINE, MINE, MINE!!!!

BUT....I kept my calm. I told him he could use the house to have his family over on the Saturday he has the kids and I would be glad to find something to occupy my time for a few hours. I just asked that he clean up the mess when they leave.

So how is that for being the bigger person?

After being the nice one he tells me nevermind, he will figure something out himself.

So.....see, he is an @$$ and is never satisfied!!!!
