Kerry...thank-you for the post above. i have been doing alot of soul searching this evening / morning. trying to examine if I am more bothered with the boyfriend issue or D7's reaction to it (or more precisely her crying in the car). I am sure it is the latter. I am getting to the point where I do not care what W does. It is just that I am afraid of the impact on D7. Like DBing, I can only control myself in all this. I need to find happy and need to find it soon for my sake and for D7.
I have been doing a lousy job of GALing and detaching and it has poisoned me.....perhaps D7 senses that.
I received a response to my e-mail this morning and I am not surprised that my W blames me for D7's mood. She even went as far as saying that D7 seems troubled when she is with me?????
Ok so she is with me for 2 days per week, starts weeping 2 minutes into our car ride, asks me regularly about my feelings toward her mother and the possibility of getting back together. I guess it does not occur to W that perhaps D7 feels safer bringing up her insecurities with me.
I still can not believe that W sees nothing wrong with exposing our daughter to another man .....I am starting to doubt if I am over dramatizing all this. Let's see we were on holiday in the DR roughly 4 months ago and there is someone new sleeping in daddy's bed.....oh yeah and she is troubled when she is with me.......
