My Story

[SingleDad]

JonF - I too am finding this time of year rough.

I had similar situation as you. I asked my W in August - For my birthday I wanted to go out to dinner as a family. She went - but was as uncomfortable as heck. I also think she hated that my D3 was so attached to me and avoided her. Needless to say W was out of there quickly.

Only other time together was the day after Thanksgiving - helped decorate the xmas tree - she was also very uncomfortable. And was very critical of me the whole time.

I mentioned to her 3 weeks later how critical she was and that since you walked out, I can raise my daughter the way I think is best.. If you want me to raise her to your liking, then we need to do it altogether as a family. She yelled out "well then I'll never spend time together if you don't like it".... In actuality she is with OM and uses any excuse she can.

When W has OM - There is nothing that can be said to change the situation.
