I Am Divorced

My ex is very selfish, self centered, self absorbed covert narcissist. Lately my older of the two younger boys has been asking him for this and that for his birthday that’s coming up next week, and this and that for Christmas for himself and his little brother. My ex likes to spend money. On HIMSELF ONLY. The suspicious thing is he has been agreeing to get my boys all the things they have been asking for. Even the boys are surprised. I can’t help but to wonder what is going on with him.

The wonderful thing about divorce, if there is an upside, is that you don't have to worry those things any more.
Just be their mom. In regards to him, that's all they need from you.

I know. But we are freshly divorced. Actually we haven’t even received our divorce decree yet.

They say when a person changes dramatically it’s either one or two things. He either got a divine wake up call, or he’s dying. @dragonfly46

@MyNewBeginning or using drugs, has a brain tumor, or just "lost it!"

My daughter is going through a divorce from "the same man" as you describe! It is amazing how bad he is. He reminds me of #45, a man whose name I don't like to even mention!

I’m so sorry... in the end it’s probably the best decision she’s ever made. @samueltyler2

@MyNewBeginning she really had no choice. She caught him in an affair, caught him stealing money, this week is the court hearing. Hopefully the judge won't be conned by him, as we all were.
