[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My ex wife was divorced with a kid when I married her and she and I eventually divorced years later after having two children.

Just like her and her first ex, she and I have few pleasantries. I don’t actively bear her ill will, but I have absolutely no interest in chatting her up or wishing her happy whatever. I’m kind to her with respect to the kids and we don’t give each other a hard time. I say nice things about her to the kids if it naturally comes up.

What’s more is any text I received from her I would be happy to share with my current girlfriend. My ex is the mother of my children sure, but beyond that she is like a distant cousin you see at the odd wedding every couple years. Handshake or head nod.

Despite what others may think, our kids respect the way she and I interact and we’ve always made the kids a priority. Treating her extra special with happy New Years or whatever is not part of it and would seem fake. [/quote]

This is exactly what I was expecting. I get that they have kids together and there is a need to communicate about them, but the text exchange was really, really friendly. I would not want to see him constantly upset by getting into arguments with her all the time, but this extra friendliness has taken me aback. - Op[/quote]

To OP - I think some of these posters are being mean and judging you harshly. It won’t be the first time on DCUM I’ve said I wish you were my friend or I was your therapist. I’d listen to your view, factor in what could be his side, and we’d help you determine if it’s good for you. Trust your instinct. Your it is telling you something that you need to factor in. Take it slow and take things in. Don’t make quick movements. But he may have used you as a rebound. Sure. It’s disconcerting. I understand. He may be working through things as well. Time will tell. So no need to worry. [/quote]

Thank you for your kindness. I appreciate it. - Op[/quote]
