I'm gonna do my best to a long story
really short. Ok, here's the deal. About
5 months ago I broke up w/ my bf of 5 1/2
yrs. It was really hard but I felt it was
something I had to do. He wouldn't work
or help out much & was always lying to
me. Also, I had fallen for another man,
of whom i'm in a relationship with now.
So of course, in the past 5 months, me
& my ex have had our good days when we
can actually get along & be civil with
one another, and our bad days when we just
hate the mere thought of the other. My ex
& I have 2 children together, 3 yr old
twins(boy & a girl). There for a
while he would pick them up in the mornin
& keep them while I worked & then
he would keep them every sunday night.
But in the past 2-3 weeks, he's totally
changed. I cant count how many times he
said he would be there in the morn to pick
them up & then he wouldnt show, call,
nothing. He's called to talk to his kids
on the phone once. He hasnt seen them in
2 weeks & i've recieved no word of him
in almost a week now. I know he's been
hanging out w/ his friends almost
constantly, he's frequented the bar a few
times, but still he cant find the time for
his children. He dont work so I know he
has the time. It's killing me cuz my kids
ask for their daddy everyday n everyday I
have to tell them they wont c him. My son
is very attached to his daddy n he cries
cuz he wants him, yet none of this seems
to matter to my ex. He wasnt always like
this. When we were together he was a
descent father. I just dont understand y
he's doing this to his children. I know
he's still angry with me for leaving him
but this is not the way to retalliate
against me. I guess my question is what's
your opinion? Why is he doing this to his
kids & acting so very childish? If it
helps, i'm 24 & he's 26. Thank u 4
your time n advice.
