T I've said all along our Xs are very similar. My X has barely spoken to my D19 in virtually the entire 4yrs he has been gone purely b/c she has had the guts to tell him that she doesn't agree with what he has done and that he has treated me badly. On Monday she went to see her new half sister for the first time. Not b/c she wanted to see her dad and OW but b/c she doesn't want the child to grow up not knowing who she is. She said the atmosphere between them was very strained. She didn't see OW at all b/c she had gone to bed as she was tired (it was 10am in the morning but I understand the baby screams all day and most of the night ). D19 was under the impression that this was just a ruse. How weird is that; a first time mother not wanting to be in the room when her daughter is introduced to her half sister. If I were in her shoes (which I would never put myself there in first place) then I would want to show off my baby not sneek away. ON the other hand I'm glad she did vacate the room b/c D19 dislikes her even more than she dislikes her dad.
