I had a confrontation of sorts with my stbx last weekend. She refused to let my mother pick up the kids. I dont understand why she has to make it so diffucult for me to see my kids. Since then I have been back sliding into the old gloom and doom, I will never meet anybody, this is all my fault, what could I have done to keep it together, why did she do this to me< kind of bull shit. I getting better today. Does anyone else have this problem???
The good side is that usually within a few hours or the next day those thoughts have vanished and I am strong again.
It is what it is. I can WANT to help him forever, but I can't change his choices. So I go on, knowing that eventually this too shall pass.
Why, so many times, this kind of thing happens, is beyond me. I don't understand why the other parent has a problem with the Ex, or STBX. Just because the wife and husband have issues, doesn't mean the other parent and the kids have issues.
If the other parent sees the children, and the issues aren't brought up, and that parent doesn't down the other, there's no reason for this. Unless, of course there are drugs, too much alcohol, abuse, or you're running a brothel.
