I think your right it is more of the same. its been 2 weeks since we've spoke. how do you respond to we never had fun in 18 years. our kids are much beter off now. you verbaly abused me for 18 yrs. you neglected me for 18 yrs. I was very calm talking to her and looked her in the eye. never told her I loved her. agreed with her alot.told her I handled some things poorly. agreed that we should get a divorce.( thats the last think I want) apoligized and excepted blame for alot of things. oh and I never brought this stuff up she did. she is very bitter about the custody battle but thats over now she got the kids M-F . it is more of the same but what do you talk about other than the past? thats all be have.
sorry , how did I respond ? she said the (kids were beter off now because I'm forced to be a better father). I said no its because I have learned how to be a better father. I've had alot of time to reflect on how I acted in the past and I know that I needed to change. (you neglected me for 18 yr.) I told her that I thought that was the way she liked it. she never said anything at the time and I worked alot. but I did agree with her that it wasn't right. (she said she never had fun with me ever in 18 yr.) I said what about all the nice vacations that we took. she said we only did what I wanted to do and where i wanted to go.
