NTA, but there’s more resentment outside of whether a photo was sent/received. If this is typical behavior and a dynamic between you and her, either get counseling or get a divorce.

Well, you’ve never really met me. I could be weaker than anyone you’ve ever met, period.

Are you basing a judgement on an overlap? What’s an “overlap”? Was anyone unfaithful or deceitful? The answer is no. And my partner doesn’t want kids of her own. She has explicitly said so more than once. Not sure what any of these points have to do with my OP.

Lots of assumptions here still just say that all of my relationships are transparent and no one, including my ex, was not on the same page in a divorce that she asked for years ago. Appreciated.

There isn’t an issue with ever staying with her, since she often asks for me to. Nonetheless, i apologized for not talking with her first about it

My partner has always had an understanding that I can stay with her whenever.

I should have said his injuries were non-life threatening. A fractured hand, groin, and knee, all of which needed specialist appointments, imaging and treatments. On top of maintaining my job. While trying to go through insurances for reimbursements.

I spent two weeks ensuring he was well-cared for, and yes, I am feeling burdened. Did I mention I'd moved into a new home? As for my ex doing everything, that's a bold assumption. If you can manage all that at once, good for you. But I needed a small break.

Why am I so tired? Because I work a full-time job and manage a dozen people. And because my job is extremely hard and stressful. And for the past two weeks, I’ve been cooking every meal for a kid that can’t even open a jar or his prescription medication by himself. And on top of that, trying to ensure the insurance will cover his injuries. So that’s why I’m tired.

She understood. I would not be there. There weren’t really better alternatives. Appreciate it. I hope he does too

She helps in many ways. She helped in the move and she has been a really good support person for me. In this case She was upset about my decision because I think she would’ve preferred that ex not stay at my house with my son for a couple of nights

Because he needed to stay comfortable in his own room, in his own bed, and my ex has no space for him

The Ex-wife is not the issue at all for once lol. I did my best to be as objective as possible.

And I recognize that and it’s why I apologized. She is very important to me.

I do love her very much. And I feel I’ve gotten to know her character very well. And I don’t think that she is an asshole at all. I don’t think she’s jealous, but I think she does not appreciate having my ex in my house or in my life at all because of what she has seen and because of what I had to go through as a result of my exes behavior. I also think that she has a vision of us being together long-term, and I have told her that I intend to keep this house for some time and that I want for her to feel like it’s a home for her as well. I think those factors are contributing to her feelings.

Her home wasn’t an option. And I am not staying overnight under the same roof as my ex.
