Help & Advice Needed Please (Thread 3)

[Intact]

I realise this post will male me sound down in the dumps but I do want to re-iterate that my 180s and GAL are all going very well. However...

The one thing I thought I would always have in my favour over the OM is that I'm our childs Father. But it just doesn't seem to make any difference. In fact, she doesn't seem very intent on spending time with our Son at the moment. It's like everything is about OM. What on earth do I do to try and help this?

She's told me she's in love with him, so perhaps holding on to any hope isn't doing me any favours at all? How can I compete with the fantasy of OM? We barely speak and barely see each other. I feel like I'm co=parenting with MIL at the moment.

I'm just completely out of ideas how to improve this sitch. When I see her I'm always well dressed and have a PMA attitude. But nothing seems to be bringing her any closer.

I've started to think that perhaps she's truly happy only seeing her Son so little as this gives her a chance to be "young free and single". I thought our Son may have been the one thing that could of helped pull her back after I had made the positive changes to myself.

I'm really at a loss and would love any advice from anybody.
