But I need to post this even though my actions goes against the advice given. Or perhaps they didnt.
Ex called the other night. She spoke and I listened. She no longer feels she can explain to herself why she was unhappy in our marriage. She has decided to focus on our childrens well being. Shes spending time alone with them and enjoying herself in their company. She wants us to co-parent alot more then we have.
So... A step in some kind of better direction and im glad she called.

How old is your stepson? Your ex sounds completely mental. Here's an evil thought, not that it matters. She says she wants to co-parent more, you find out she has a new f-buddy, and suddenly she allows you to take him every other weekend freeing up more of her time. NOT that it matters at all! You get to spend some precious quality time with you kid! Her loss again and again.

I am well aware of the fact im giving her a free pass to continue her screwed up journey. But I had a serious talk with her older sister and we both agreed that this is so much better then ex trying to "get rid of" the kids when they are with her. Something she has done several times before. The only thing thats important at this stage ate the kids. I will do everything in my power for their well being.
Stepson is 13. He knows his mother has changes so much. Holds alot of things inside of him. Hopefully I can slowly get to him now bc he needs to let of steam.
Ex can continue her path until she some day gets tired of running. I wouldnt want to be in her shoes when that happens.
because of her MLC crap.. just not fair... but still happy for you.. I am very new at this.. so maybe my time will come
