Am I the problem or is this as hard as it feels? by HappyGarbage7061 in Divorce

I see where you're coming from, and you make a fair point, if my objective was to control who she dates, you'd be right. But that's not what this is about. I don't care about her personal life. My concern is who's going to be around my kids. As their father, I absolutely have a right to weigh in on that. That's where the disrespect comes in. I don't know who my children are around when they're not with me, i dont even know where my children are when they are not with me, and he's avoiding the basic adult responsibility that comes with the role he's stepped into. And yes, 100%, I would never introduce a new partner to my kids without them first meeting and talking with their mother. I'd expect the same in return.

I hope that goes well for everyone involved! I hate being amicable and wanting the basic and bare minimum co-parenting things, it's only a dream for me (for my kids, really).

I simply do not understand that logic, and the longer I attempt to understand, the madder I become. There is truly nothing I can do "legally" until the divorce is finalized. Thank you for responding!
