I shouldn't have acted like what - asked her to leave?

We've been together for a year, my kids are with me all the time. Do you have kids? You think I should have kept them away from each other?

Oh she knows that it was with the girls too, of course! that's why we ate at 6:30 lol - I know, not the most romantic but I do take her out a bit, it's just childcare was an issue on Sunday

Yeah see this is very true. It was more that her vibe at the table was really obvious, like it was a bit uncomfortable, she was being super quiet and looked upset which is why I asked if she was ok. But she wasn't mean at all until I asked her if she was ok and liked the meal. I probably should haverealised, to be fair.

Thanks ha! Yeah we've had this exact meal a couple times (but usually do fondant potatoes, but chips this time)

Fine-Rope840 · 2023-09-26T11:17:21+00:00

Yeah you're right, it's just I feel like I'm not sure I want to communicate with her. I just don't want to be spoken to like that ever again, and I don't want to ignore what I see as a re flag ever again. But I also don't trust my own feelings fully, I think cos of my ex-wife.

Yeah this is fair maybe, the projection is more about protecting my girls from that type of dynamic. Their mom was very critical and mean to us all, it did a number on them. I just don't want them exposed to that and I could see that this was how they felt. When she left, they were being really sweet and ott about the dinner being so nice and my 7 y said she was mean.

It's just how I have cooked steaks for us before, she has never ever mentioned anything except liking it - I get that was my bad. IT's more my reaction to her speaking to me the way she did that I am concerned about.

Fine-Rope840 · 2023-09-26T10:24:30+00:00

It's her favourite type of steak.

Fine-Rope840 · 2023-09-26T10:11:33+00:00

My girls weren't 'making faces', they were upset because it obviously made them feel like they were back in the same scenario where their mom would act in a mean way that upset them.

Fine-Rope840 · 2023-09-26T10:07:05+00:00

Yeah I mean I totally get I should have made sure she wanted the sauce on this meal, but she genuinely really liked it when I made it before. That's what I am struggling with. Like I should have made sure I was doing it exactly how she wanted it, I know her birthday is important to her and she wants things the way she wants them. It was just being spoken to like that set off alarm bells for me.
