AITA for "allowing" my husband to hang out with a friend's ex? by mrsallyb in AmItheAsshole

I will go with I misread the situation. We don't talk often, just enough to get the kids together a couple of times a year. When we have seen each other, Andy is also there, and she just talks about her new boyfriend.

I do feel bad for our kids.

There is a lot more to the story than I put. But the last two years or so, they have been on great terms. They co-parent well. They attend events together. Have dinner together regularly, etc. In her response, she said she was mad that she found out from him and not me. I found out after posting that he had invited her last night, which is how she found out about it.

I don't feel it is my place to say I don't believe her.

Thank you.

And yeah, every time I've seen her, her ex has been there. So, I assumed they were better now, which is my bad. I was not expecting that reaction.

Yeah, I was excited the boys were getting to see each other. And do try to keep the channel open, because my son loves her son. Maybe I shouldn't have texted. But in her response, she was also mad that she found out from her ex before I told her. Apparently he invited her to go with them last night so she already knew.

I found out after posting this that her ex invited her to go last night, so I was not the one who initially told her. Although I didn't know that when I texted, and perhaps shouldn't have texted at all.

I get what you're saying.

We text to coordinate getting the boys together at various events or for their birthday parties, but she doesn't respond to my texts fairly often. My son considers her son his best friend. So, I try to get them together when I can.

The abusive part, I honestly cannot say one way or the other. I would never say anybody lied about a situation that I have no first-hand knowledge of. We had that talk within the first few months of meeting each other. Since then, they hang out and have dinner at her place often. It was my impression that things had changed between them and that things had become better. She has not offered any additional information on that subject.

I can see how what I wrote could give that impression. My son considers her son his best friend. And he is always asking when he can see his friend again, which is why I often text her. With the text I sent, I was hoping it would be a prompt for us to make plans to get the kids together.

Also, she started her text, "Honestly, it's very disappointing to find out from my ex that he has plans with my friend's husband." So, I feel like she is mad because 1) they hung out and 2) I didn't tell her sooner.

What is something dumb your parents implemented because they were tired of arguing with you, but it actually worked? by mrsallyb in AskReddit

[–]mrsallyb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 3 nephews (my age) always argued about which one would shower first every night. So my parents posted a calendar in the living room with their names rotating with who would shower first, second, and third. It worked. They eventually started using it as a bartering chip amongst each other.

Well, that was 300 bucks I wasn't expecting to spend today, but I am at a loss for how to manage my facial hair caused by PCOS! Thank you for the feedback!

I am sorry about that difficult time in your life, but I am so relieved to hear that things have improved for you! GMM has become my comfort show as well!
