I HATE that he has to be friends with OW family!!! Its so not fair!! I just want her out of our life forever!!!!!!! Even though when H came back..I told him that I knew he would probably always have feelings for her and I understood that..but to have to see her...



I am in the same sitch. My H was basically his ex-OW's kids' dad for about 3 years. Their real dad is out of the picture. And my H has been taking even more care of them lately, since the crazywoman turned into a junkie was never around. Now she is in jail again, so 2 of the kids are living with him. I have only met one and we get along great. She even defended me to the crazywoman, which made crazywoman soooo mad..

It would make things sooo much easier if they had no contact. We'd worry so much less. And originally I had wanted him to cut off all contact with her. But the kids have no one else to take care of them. H doesn't want CPS to get involved cause he's afraid they'll split them up. And they're old enough to not need constant supervision (12, 16, 17).

Sorry, didn't mean to hijack your post. Just wanted to let you know I know how you feel!
