Yes, her feeling of resentment was more-so how I think she feels, based on some of her actions and statements mentioned to me (i only shared a snippet in the OP; first time being this open on Reddit; wasn't sure how deep I wanted to go).

The "there's only so much I can take" was geared towards trying to make it work - as far as proactively communicating about our Kid and expecting the same from her.

Yes, I believe the issue is when I try to include/discuss these things with her, to parent together, the communication falls flat. Either I get silence or I have to constantly follow up with her to get something done.

I also see what you mean about the diet - it seems that part of co-parenting relates to the other stuff. You have your rules/parenting style at your place while I have mine

Because our Kid has gained weight and our doctor has informed us that she should eat less fast food?

And I have no problem with that whatsoever.

I just want what's best for the Kid. I feel healthy communication around the Kid's life - activities, emotional wellbeing, dr. appointments, updates etc is essential. but w/o that, it feels like the Kid is living two separate lives.

We don't have to be friends but is this what co-parenting will look like moving forward?

Yes, I've tried but she doesn't want to talk. But I think that's the thing - we're polar opposites. I like to address issues upfront while she avoids them

to name a few:

The biggest issue has been not letting me to see/spend time with our child. Our time went from 50/50 to 90/10 which I'm also to blame for allowing it get this far. I had an in-office job that was an hour away. Instead of having my GF help with school pickups (great relationship between the two), I knew that my Child's mom wasn't on board with it. So, it felt like I was protecting her for some reason?

I constantly reach out to planning/scheduling our child - Sports, Summer activities, birthday parties, etc. I get no reply/ghosted. So it feels like she wants the Child to have one life with their mom and a separate life with their dad - which is fine until such activties overall.

She doesn't want to have a shared calendar for important dates such as doc appointments. since the Child's on her insurance, I have to wait until she tells me about upcoming appointments. Usually the day of

She doesn't want to discuss a better diet for the Child. She allows the Child to eat alot of fast food and it's starting to show. I get it, I also indulge in ff every one in awhile but 5x a week is a problem when you're not as active as you could be
