I Am a Single Parent

This is so new to me. Co-parenting bullshit. Trying to rise above our past so that he can have time with our children. Now I'm left with half of the week spent with my kids and the other half worrying how they're doing, if they're okay. While he introduces them to his new girlfriend when I've been out of the house for less than two months.
Tell me again how much you love me and you didn't want this. Tell me again how much I'm hurting you by doing this. Only for me to tell you I'd stay and try a little longer. Only to have you turn around and tell me you f---ing hated me and that wasn't my choice to make.
When we're in front of people you are the victim. When we're alone you're the aggressor. Tell me again how much you loved me.

I'm going through a similar time and its not easy. Especially with the kids. Its really difficult not having them with me (I have them most of the time). You can do it though, I work really hard at not arguing in front of the kids but in the end we will both be there parents so at a minimum we need to tolerate each other.

Move forward. Don't say a bad word about their father or the woman of the hour. Years from now you will be respected. Children learn what they love. Lead by example. You will be ok. They will be ok.

Sorry to hear you are having a rough time. I've been in the same type of situation. Hope it gets better for you.

Thank you :)

Parenting is a huge responsibility. Try and get done with the bitterness to make it feel like a pleasant one.
My best wishes!
