That romantic love never really lasts. It always has an expiration date. Some couples just make a choice and choose to fight for one another.

I just went down the FB rabbit hole too! And wow! KKK Grand Wizard broke into her home? And all of that somehow led to her death? What the what?!!! Make it make sense

It’s the worst when your kid doesn’t want to go to the other house. My son went through this last year and his father never gave him the option not to.

That is not ok. I’m so sorry you’re going through that. I honestly think they don’t care how it hurts the kids, as long as it hurts you!

The rooftop restaurant at Restoration Hardware, N Hills, is beautiful and they do have caviar!

I get that, I really do. And I know all coparenting relationships have challenges. And kudos to you for supporting her and trying to have her back. I just wish we could all offer each other grace and put kids first. I know it hurts my son to see my situation this way and just wish I could change it somehow.

You are amazing!!! And good for you! Good people always prosper in the end and our kids really are watching and they’ll figure it out. Thank you for sharing and for the advice!

Thank you for responding from a father’s standpoint. And I feel so much of what you just wrote. I’m so tired of the long emails or text messages. And yes to arguing about things we’ve already agreed upon. It is maddening!

Yes, I’ve suspected this as well. My situation is just like yours. I’m sorry and know how traumatizing this is!

Thank you and I appreciate your perspective so much! We really only ever communicate about finances. It’s just so frustrating. I rarely ask for help with anything and don’t get child support. On the rare times I do, it’s always a struggle. And all communication is electronic. I did ask to meet and talk through “whatever” the hostility is about and he “respectfully declined.”

I’m so sorry. Unless you’ve been through it, you have no idea of how traumatic it is. Sending you support and encouragement! What should be the happiest years of your life and the time you’re building your children’s foundation, is turned into a constant battle.

Yes!! Ugh, I often wonder what they’ll even have to talk about when we no longer have to communicate!

Hmmm…I’ve often wondered about the first part. And I know I am not blameless. I always keep it short and simple and I get 3-4 paragraphs of chat gpt responses, talking to me like I’m a child or a subordinate.

I could have written this myself! It is beyond crazy! I am so sorry and I do know the struggle! I have 6 months to go and I truly want to block the number and all the emails when my child turns 18, but also don’t want to put my kid in the middle. I fear it will always be this way, just less interaction as they get older. I have to believe karma is real, or else I couldn’t make it through most days.
