How the hell can she expect me to be civil?
She took away everything I had. I thought I could depend on her. I couldn’t. I put 10 years of my life in to this family, she threw it away.
“these kind of things make it difficult to have conversations with you, or even want to”
Good. I don’t want to have conversations with you. I don’t give a fuck if you want to talk to me or not. You latched on to me when your live was turned upside down. Any port in a storm I guess.
For the rest of my life, any time I think of you with someone else, it will hurt. You will always have a part of me. But to think you’re so fucking special that I want to build something with you? Get over yourself. You cheated on me, emotionally and physically. In (almost) 10 years of dating other people, I never once considered leaving you. Your first serious relationship, your gone.
You talk a lot about happiness, the only person happy now, is you. The kids aren’t, Bridget definitely isn’t, and I sure as hell am not. I’m not sure that Jessie is either. You claim your not poly, yet your with someone that is more poly than I am. How is that fair to anyone.
I realized the other day that you did the same thing to me that you did to your first ex. You decided it was over then acted on it, but the other party wasn’t really informed. I know the level of respect you had for him, so I can only assume that is where I fall now.
I always thought it was pretty damn impressive what I did with the kids. You apparently think it’s pretty common place. And then expected me to just walk away when you decided it was over? Tough, I’m here to stay. Yes it’s true that I didn’t want kids that early, and that I waited 7 years to have the little guy because I wanted to make sure we were going to stay together. But they are here, and I’m here, and I do understand what responsibility and commitment are. I’m always going to be as involved as I can. By the same token, I’m not going to give up all my plans because you left, and you’re going to have to accommodate my goals as well.
