Midlife wife crisis14

[Wolfman]

Hello everyone. It has been a while. The amount of garbage that has been going on in my life is uncanny. So, I will just update you all what’s going on recently. I have been dating my GF for almost a year and a half. For the most of it, it was amazing. I thought I found “the one”. But then all this other stress around me started to happen (parents getting divorced they are 75, selling my parents house, my dad stealing thousands from my mom, a squatter in my moms house, my daughter refusing to come with me and the ex enabling that, taking ex to court to see my daughter, need I say more). All of these things started to put a real stress on our relationship. What was blissful is now becoming painful. To top it all of my ex has brainwashed my daughter to hating me and my GF. So I guess my question/comment is this. What do I do? My GF and I are now arguing a lot more, my daughter absolutely hates my GF and never even gave her a chance. Do I continue down this rocky road or do I jump ship? My GF has been amazing but the stress of everything has really go to us. My kids not liking her and honestly I could have brought home Ariana Grande and I don’t think it would have mattered. I am so confused. Half my heart is saying to let go the other half is saying once some of this stress is worked out, it will get better. Also, do I let my kids dictate to me who I date. I know this is extremely difficult for them but I don’t know what to do. My ex has a BF and the kids were taught not to tell me anything, meaning even if he was doing something wrong the kids wouldn’t tell me. Well I look forward to talking with all of you again.
