She's only 3 and a half. This started when she was 2. He just used to be a more loving person in general. He used to want to spend time with us, even if he didn't have the time to spend, you could tell. At first, even when he started acting differenly towards me, he was fine with her (then them) but he slowly started pulling away from all of us more and more.
Now he has good weeks it seems and bad. Sometimes he will be really good with them (playing) for a couple days and then a week or so with nothing... so now, he's does with them like he does for me, he feels bad and he buys stuff. My girls have more toys then they could possibly ever play with, but they miss their daddy. i can understand why he buys things, they are too little. It's just mostly simply spending time with them. Sitting and helping them color a picture, helping them build a lego house, watching a silly cartoon with them sitting on your lap. They need that stuff. I also think a big part of it is that he is just bitter a lot of the time. His behavior is really inconsistant a lot of times depending on his mood.
Also, she's 3 and she is my little drama queen. I'm sure she just meant that she want him to play with her more and not just love her, but she's litte. playing with her means you love her.
i'll take anything i can get from him at this point. Trash is a god thing.
