Our daughter invited both W and I to her birthday party along with a lot of D’s friends. D also invited a married couple who are long time close friends of our family. W told me she was unhappy with those friends being there and that she wished she could leave out the back door instead of facing them.
If you've read a lot of stories here you'll find it's fairly common for WAS/WSs to all of a sudden cut out people in their lives who disapprove of their actions and gravitate to those who accept their affair(s)/divorce.

Could be, but like LH said...

My ExW left our then 5yo son's birthday party earlier to go talk to OM1. Sad.

Good stuff, Rockon. It's all about you and the kids from now on. Keep being the best dad you can be.
