fth, Oh, yes. They will amaze you with their incredible feats of selfishness.
So sad and true. Ugh, and I fear this is only the beginning. I am preparing myself for when H backs out on his commitment to come to D4's upcoming birthday party. Won't that be fun? Explaining to all my family and his why he is not at his daughters birthday. Not sure how I'm gonna handle that, if I'm just going to say it was a work obligation he could not get out of at the last minute or tell them that he has filed for D and did not want to face everyone yet...
Yes, I am reading the Divorce Remedy book (I think that's the updated DR book, right?). I have almost finished it and I am trying to practice the LRT (at least in theory) but it's so hard to completely pull away and get a life when I am so sad and also still have some expectations on him actually participating in his kids lives. I guess I need to give those expectations up for a while. The funny (not really) thing is, he claims to love his kids and want to be the best dad to them but he's clearly not doing the work to be that and still putting his needs and feelings above theirs. I guess that's why I sent that text, I wanted to believe that he misunderstood because of the text sent in error afterwards but really, he saw the one that pertained to him, he just doesn't care enough to put forth any effort, even for his kids.
