The crack in my separated life...

[Sweetbriar]

H is angry...for sure! He came and got oldest D last night for a movie and before she left she and I had gotten into an arguement. I refused to let her sleep over at a friends house (same house she went last weekend where her friends bro is and that is the one who she almost slept with) and she threw a temper tantrum. A half hour later, H texted and asked if she wanted to go out and she said yes, so my feelings were hurt since I had told her that I would do something with her instead of her going with friend. She denied me, but went with her dad...so I told her that if she wants to play him against me than maybe she should stay the whole weekend with him.

She freaked out and started crying, screaming, etc and called H and told him how awful I was and he loved every minute of it! He called me and was saying that he wishes he was there taking care of them and not me..and asked what I was doing TO her? I just told him she was angry because she wasnt allowed to go to friends and she was angry. I told him I didnt want to argue with him, and that I was hanging up..his response was that he wished he never had to talk to me again!

He then called D on her phone and told her that HE would take her to friends house after movie, so I had then call him and tell him about the journal and my reasons. After that, he did stand behind me but thought maybe her friend could stay at our house so she would feel better. I advised him that she threw a tantrum and she was NOT getting a friend over. Period.

They went to movies and she was furious with me saying I just didnt want her to see her dad, which is what Im sure is what she told him. oh well..I wonder if this is just the beginning of all the stuff we will endure with teens?? She didnt say a word to me when she got home...she just went in her room and shut the door.

Before he got her, h texted me that she needed a "good female" to talk to and that is why she needed to talk to his brothers girlfriend...and she was a good role model. He also texted D=birth control...

I responed that I didnt want to condone it, but maybe and that his brothers girlfriend had nothing to do with this. I wanted to write back dad=home...but I didnt. I also wanted to mention was a GREAT role model he has been to her..but I didnt do that either. Im getting better about holding back!

H also mentioned on the phone when I was talking to him that he is so physically and emotionally hurting that he can barely function and Im loving it. I didnt respond to that comment and kept it about D. HARD TO DO!! He also said, I hope you have fun going out tonight and spending money that Im supporting you with. Have fun!

He was angry and mean, but I let it go.

This morning, I am painting youngest D's room and enjoying it. I had started it awhile ago and had some trim and doors to finish...so easy but it will be complete! My oldest is not talking to me except to tell me how mean I am...
