She's met someone


Recommended Posts

Hi guys

 

Well it's happened, she's met some one. She has told me she now wants to sell the house rather than get my name off the mortgage. When she told me I felt shocked and was shaking. No tears as I had to clean up for my little son staying. I did the usual "if he so much as raises a hand to my son" routine and "he better not come between me and my son".

 

I shouldnt really care that she's met someone as I don't love her, but somehow I do. My number one concern is my son and number two is making sure she sticks to the financial commitments we both have as I learned from bitter experience that once a new guys on the scene things change. If there is any one out there that's experienced the same with a child/toddler involved, I'd really appreciate some words of wisdom.

I had a similar situation and it turned out to be one of the best things that has ever happened to me and my son. My son's mother met someone shortly after we split when he was around a year old. At first I was very resentful that she had moved on before me, and I also did the angry "this guy so much as raises his hand to my son" bit. It bothered me that my son would be spending half of his time with another man. I would later get to know this man who would eventually become my son's stepfather as a very good, decent man who is a great influence on my sons life when he is with his Mom. I have an excellent relationship with his mother and step dad and feel very fortunate about that. I later met someone and became engaged and although it didn't work out, it is very comforting that my son's Mom, her husband, and I share a very positive parenting relationship. Although it may not seem like it, your situation could be a blessing in disguise.
