Hi Simon, I am not very familiar with your sitch. For what it is worth, I have lived through similar bouts of anger regarding XW and OP as it relates to my daughter. The only piece of advice I can gice you is to try hard to not let it get you down, especially in front of your child. I did and it was noticeable and quite frankly does no one any good. Hang in there and try to rebuild your own happiness without your ex (for now). You have to come to the realization that things may never be what they once were. These are difficult times but you owe it to your child, to people who care for you and to yourself to be strong. Simon, it does get better.
