[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He'll pretend and want to be father of the year when the new girlfriend comes around, and that is hard on everyone. If you can figure out some way to make this work for now, do that. Get better at boundaries. This stuff doesn't get to this point over night. That said, he needs to take responsibility and probably won't. It's miserable, but can you make yourself happy enough in other ways? Out source more household stuff? Spend more time out with mom friends?[/quote] OP here. Yes, you're almost certainly right on your first point. He unfortunately has everyone but me fooled. He will jump at the opportunity to help family (including mine), friends, co-workers, and neighbors. But not me 🙄 Fosters relationships with Internet strangers and people he's met only once or twice. Texts his co-workers in the evenings, even late at night sometimes, despite having talked with them throughout the workday. Part of me just wants him to cheat so I'll have a clean break and reason to leave vs. my current situation of issues which is subjective based on who looks at it. I have said instead of money being spent on expensive toys just for him, to hire an organizer to help us with clothes, kitchenware, and toys which are our biggest items in terms of clutter. We aren't at all organized or tidy (not dirty, just chaotic) which leads to a lot of unnecessary stress trying to just find things. He keeps refusing saying we don't need that and all an organizer will do is just point and say "organize this" and I'm like I don't think that's how it works.. But meanwhile he'll drop $1000-2000+ on something he wants just for himself. It's absolutely maddening.[/quote]
