[quote=Anonymous]I know it hurts. Twenty years ago, my husband chose the OP over me. She got my alcoholic husband. He got an instant family and a new start. And I got full custody of two preschoolers and one elementary school kid who was very traumatized. It was very very hard. And one day, before our divorce was even final, he was supposed to come over to visit the kids and never showed up. It was almost ten years before they saw their father again .. and another ten years before they saw him a second time. Child support disappeared and I worked multiple jobs to keep us above water. There was no drama with him or her. No fighting over the kids. But no breaks either. And no father for my kids. They’re all young adults now. They’re good, decent people - but they’ve never gotten over it. They all struggle with romantic relationships and I never remarried - just too busy working and raising kids. I would have done anything for my ex to have shown up at the kids’ sports games and school meetings - or even just for him to show up in the hospital when one was in an accident and was in a coma. Instead, he told me to call him if she died so he could make plans to attend the funeral. Lady, I don’t know you, but don’t turn away love from your kids’ lives. That woman will never be your child’s mother. Your daughter will always remember the school meetings you’ve gone to, the games, the chicken soup when she was sick, the holiday presents she had hoped for.... The OP can’t compete with that. But what she can do is make life so miserable that your ex chooses her over your kid and, even though you think that would be revenge against him, the person it would really hurt is your daughter. Don’t do this to her. Fake it till you can make it but don’t give them the satisfaction of seeing you suffer. You won. The OP got a cheater. [/quote]
