Thanks guys, i did my best today to be a better communicator, but the fact is I am talking to a brick wall.. I mean, literally, he is silent and doesn't answer ANY of my questions, even to do with parenting. I ask him why he is moving 1.5hrs away when he could stay in our apartment so he could see more of bub - no response. I ask him what sort of involvement he would like with baby while he is here so I know where to pitch my 'expectations' and to know when to ask him along to thing (such as appointments) or not - no response. I ask him what sort of father he wants to be from 17.000kms - he did repond to this one...he wants me to email updates and send photos etc. I mean, he is just not normal. I was nice and asked him about his job prospects, sympathised about how hard it would to be unemployed for this long. He cried at one point and said "I am so sorry, I am so sorry". Also talked about being really unhappy and just wanting to go back to Europe. Then he really got up my goat when he said "Well how would you find it if I brought OW to live here?" and I wanted to say I would skin her alive (sorry, not elegant) but i managed to say something like "well do what you like but without her speaking english, no prospects for work, nor a working visa that seems a bit stupid no?". He still doesn't accept that OW has ANYTHING to do with our marriage breakdown. What kind of loser is her? Then I raved about how he could dare expect me to accept someone who thought it was a good idea to have an affair with a married man expecting a child....blah blah..doh!
Anyway, there I go again!
You know, if only he'd TALK BACK I woulnd't monologue. It's just not in my nature to sit there in silence.
