He did tell you, that's how you know. What you are upset about is that he didn't tell you beforehand which may sound to him like you want him asking your permission. I mean, go ahead and bring it up, but be prepared for all outcomes.

I agree there are probably many valid circumstances that would result in her staying there, but the fact that he didn’t tell you about is worrisome. What else may he “forget “ to mention?

I’m sorry OP.

He probably thought his ex wife sleeping at their house for three nights wasn't a big deal... and that you will create drama over it. It's tough enough dealing with an ex with shared custody and a co owned house without your girlfriend creating additional drama.

Why does the ex need to stay three nights. Overnight, maybe.

It’s not so much she’s staying with her ex, she’s staying with her kid. I don’t think you’re mature enough for this relationship, OP.

This is not a big deal. She owns the house. She is the mother of the kids. It is not confusing. She will always be in his life. They are divorced. So what if she stays in the house she owns when she visits? Grow up. There are many reasons people do not sell houses after divorce.

This. This is bad news.


$800,000 house with co-owners. To solo-title it one would have to buy out the other. Or both agree to sell - but with kids in the same school district you can't afford either option.



Don't enter into monogamous long-term relationships if you are not finished divorcing. You can wait. Long term, monogamous
relationship come with expectations. Or, date people on similar circumstances.

As long as they're sleeping in different bedrooms, it's fine.

Divorced people should complete their divorce before starting monogamous long-term relationships.
