Ah I understand kat, thanks. I'll make sure that doesn't happen.

NM, thanks for the support. Actually I forgot to mention what DD said about 15 mins later after our talk. She said "daddy, you know why I don't want to go do fun stuff with you? because I want to go do some fun stuff with mommy. mommy never does fun stuff, we just stay home" awwwww...I know she has fun with STBXW and they go out but I take her places that stbxw probably doesn't. I used to be the one to get everyone out of the house on the weekends. STBXW didn't really 'want' to go but would go along and then have fun too. Camping was the same way...we'd all look forward to it weeks in advance but then a day or two before STBXW would act like she didn't want to go. I realize I let her take care of the food stuff and I took care of making sure the camper and the truck were ready, the gas cylinders, batteries were good, the sink pump etc were working. She complained that I didn't help her with the meal planning and was always criticizing her. Which I'm guilty of doing...but not a lot especially since she mentioned it. I think she took it as criticism since she never wanted to go in the first place so anything I asked like 'did you pack the xyz' just as a reminder she'd say 'YES! why don't you pack stuff if you're so concerened about it'- I'd just stay quiet mostly or tell her that's not what I meant.

Anyway, back to DD...so I told her that if she wants to do fun stuff with mommy she can just ask mommy and I'm sure she'll take her. But at the same time daddy and her can also do fun stuff that way she'll have twice the fun.
