[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because if you can all be friends now, it means he wasnt so bad after all. [/quote] This was my immediate thought. [/quote] +2. XDH tried to be chatty and friendly while refusing to pay me child support until I filed (teen DS chose to live with me), going after my inheritance (unsuccessfully), refusing to help with older DD’s tuition (she still resents him) and more. Finally I *calmly* told him I wasn’t going to be bffs with someone who did these things to me and my kids. XDH didn’t say anything but looked angry/chagrined/something. I think two things were going on. 1. He was in denial about what a jerk he was being. He couldn’t admit it to himself. 2. Like pp said, he wants your acceptance to validate his behavior to himself and others. [/quote] Not Op but that is a good point about him wanting your acceptance to validate his behavior/make him seem like less of a jerk. Makes total sense.[/quote]
