I am sick of seeing my friend in pain, worried to death.
Her ex left her and the kids for someone else 5 years ago.
He has lived his new life (cancelling contact in favour of holidays with new family, nights out with new Mrs, meals with new in-laws etc), had a couple more kids etc.
My friend has always facilitated contact at his request.
What I want to know is why this evil couple still insist years down the line on torturing my friend???
He had an affair and left.
This resulted in the loss of the family home.
My friend was left fending for herself and her babies in a rented house a quarter of the size of the former home with no
child maintenance (self employed, cooks the books very well!).
She is such a happy person, tries not to see the bad in anyone, will help anyone out etc and yet this awful couple do nothing but put her down and make her life a misery.
She''s fat and ugly (she isnt)
She''s a terrible mum (she isn''t)
She doesnt clean the house (if anything she is OCD about cleaning)
She doesnt read to the kids (both are on the SEN register at school but my friend DOES constantly read to the kids, the SEN aspect came about when Dad left)
..and the list goes on.
They brag about their life, holidays, fab house, brightness of other kids etc. My friend doesnt want to hear this when he gets away with paying no maintenance!
Why cant they just leave her alone? It makes my blood boil.
The latest is that she''s been told her ex and OW are no relocating nearer to her so that they can have 50/50 shared care (my ex has been full time parent to them for 5 years with very intermittent contact). She thinks this has co-incided with a lucrative job offer ex has had and will be a way to not have to pay through CSA.
It''s just not fair how some people are with others who were the victims!
Rant over.
Sorry.
