There really isn't anything to be stuck on is there? I am just sick of the BS contact over nothing. I am way too stressed about money, work and a bunch of other crap.
I can't get far enough away from her right now.
Here (the board) is all I have to vent, blow off steam, whatever. I guess it's better than taking it out on someone who doesn't deserve it.
I have enough to deal with right now. I don't need some selfish jackoff constantly pestering me like some gnat at a picnic that refuses to die.
Like I said, I have more important stuff to deal with right now than constantly give her the same answer about the house over and over.
I'm not switching with her. So there is nothing else to discuss as far as that goes. I refuse to enable her irresponsibilty as a mother. I'll take the kids when ever she doesn't want them.
I haven't put my foot down yet, I think this is just more of the same old " control, and I can't quite go this long without contact or without pestering you so here ya go type of thing.
I'm not saying a word to her about the house. I have 2 months left plus an extension. I will respond with, No I'm sorry I can't switch and the only arrangements that need to be made are you telling me whether or not you want the kids. It's that simple.
Trapt - I think you are right on track. I went through the anger stage too. It is all part of losing a tremendous amount of finances and time with the kids.
I hope so. My patience is just gone though. I can't stand having to deal with her, but she isn't going away however. So I need to do some serious work on getting rid of this.
I guess it was a sigh of relief for a little while, then boom here she comes again.
I guess the reason for me going off is to NOT say or do something to her that I'll regret.
Besides venting on these boards, I found that hitting balls at a baseball cage was a lot of relief. I would hit a few rounds of 25 in the more difficult 80+ mph cage and them move to a medium cage where I would crush every ball.
Come on t, you know you will say more... And it's just fine. That is what we are here for. We have all talked, laughed, ranted, and b*tched here. We have all moved closer to being fine here. Oh, come on, group hug...
