[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My ex is a real ass about me dating anyone. He gets mean, threatens to go to the mattresses on custody and otherwise makes my life very difficult. I keep my dating life to myself just to keep the peace. This secretive behavior is not well tolerated by the people I'm dating, which is understandable.

Ten years of this is more than enough to last me a lifetime, but I'm not sure telling him is a good idea. He will be difficult, which will be tough on our child.

Ideas?

I know I've let this shit continue for 10 years too many. Advice on a way out is more helpful than advice on what I should have done years ago. [/quote]

Stop being a wuss and catering to your ex.[/quote]

+1 That's the answer, I'm afraid. [/quote]

Sorry but this is the only answer.  He does this because you allow it.  Stop talking to him about anything other than the health and well-being of the child you share.  Everything else is off limits.  Don't get pulled into small talk or conversations about anything that is not directly related to your child.  Think of your relationship as nothing more than a business relationship.

Let him threaten till his head explodes.  If he drags you into court, demand attorneys fees and court costs.  If he is late with support, ask the courts for an income deduction order.  Don't play around.  As soon as he sees you are serious, he'll back off.[/quote]
