She said, you can make a request. And I like that - and she said it can come from your reality. Or I could have ended it with "This is my reality and this is what I think is best for my daughter – I can’t be excited about how this is happening."
Lila, you do get to get this one point. It is not "my" daughter, but "our" daughter. If you are referring to your child to a third person, yeah "my" is fine. But with your exBF, it is you should never really say "my" daughter. It seriously reinforces a lot of the old you in that one sentence.
Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. --Jean Jacques Rousseau.
