[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband's ex-wife can do annoying things (I mean, can't we all) but oh well. He's not really offering you a choice here. He can minimize his interactions with the ex as much as possible and let you and ex handle the parenting stuff (frankly, he should do that anyway) but it's not like your ex is never not going to be around in some capacity. I don't know what he wants or expects to happen here. Either he can be a big boy and cope, or he can't. Nothing you can do about it, this is all on him. Kinda weird he's this obsessed by your ex though.[/quote] The fact that she's been upset from the ex shows there's a problem. It doesn't seem to be with the bf, and yes what he can do is dump her for someone that is more willing to move forward. No a ex doesn't have to be in your life. Do the child exchanges, maybe bring bf along and once the kids can drive it's over except for a wedding, graduation or something like that. AS for co-parenting many I know do that with their new partner, and the other one does the same on their time. This ensures no one is trying to micro-manage the other couple's home or parenting style. [/quote] Is this 1980? This is not how people do divorce nowadays. My DH and kids and I are going to where my stepson lives for spring break so we can spend a week visiting and watching his soccer games and stuff. Do you think I'm going to pitch a bitch that the ex wife dares to show up for her son's games as well? Lose my mind if my husband walks over to chat with her about something? Hells bells, it is 2016. If you're so insecure you can't handle your partner CO PARENTING THEIR CHILDREN with the parent of their children, then I don't know what to tell you. Find a single 21 year old to date then. OP DOES need to deal with her ex, and will on a pretty frequent basis for a minimum of 7 more years, and even after that, will still have to just less frequently. New dude can either nut up and stop being intimidated by an ex husband and his girlfriend's necessary involvement with him, or he can go find some college grad to take up with whose life is less complicated.[/quote]
