X called this morning to have me get cat food. Long story but yes along with Child Support I also pay cat support. So anyway we had a few choice words for each other and the conversation was over.<p>Quick Background: X-29, OM 48 (BTW saw him for the 1st time up close this weekend, now maybe he's sweet on the inside, but he's dog ugly on the outside)<p>So I went to the store and got the items she requested and called to let her know she could pick them up tell her where my car was parked and he's the convo:<p>Me: Hey What's Up!<p>Idiot Girl: I'm over at OM's and you don't want to know what we're doing.<p>Me: <Holding back the vomit> I got the cat supplies blah blah blah<p>I.G.: What no smart comments<p>Me: <Vomit literally in my throat> Well you're not breathing heavy so it must not be that good. BTW say "Hey" to gramps for me. Click....<p>OMG What a piece of trash. I can't even believe that she would say that. All I can do is laugh and continue to pray that God finds His way into her soul making her crooked paths straight for her sake as well as our children.<p>Excuse me know while I go throw up.

LH,<p>IG needs to be changed to TG for Trashy girl. What a sleeze bag!<p>Anyway, I am shocked she'd say that too. I laughed that you didn't respond as she wanted you too. She wanted a rise out of you and you didn't give it to her, so it back fired. This was your best weapon. hehe...<p>I bet she never says that again, and if she does I'd have to say, "Well, better him than me! I don't want to hurt your feelings, but I know what a real woman is now and you just couldn't do it for me anymore..." [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Well, take care,<p>ANNA

my idiotjerkpaininthepatootie x has just provoked me again. So, I'm ready to join you in the "Thank Heavens I'm noat attached to that jerkfaceidjit" chant.<p>You are so good, Bill. Even providing kitty support. Why don't you ask for custody of the poor thing? Rescue it too?<p>Man, oh, man, I am so glad my x is my x.<p>Yeah, throwing up is a good idea. Only I just want to spit on him or deliver a good swift knee in the right place. But I will quit before I hijack your thread.<p>Why don't you let me wipe your face off? Then you can go and brush your teeth.

Thank y'all for wipin my chin and holding my hair. I am still just literally blown away (I live in Kansas and we've had 3 days of gail force winds) by the lack of maturity. Her comments and needs to share them shows the level at which this relationship is currently and gives an indication of where it is heading.<p>The funny thing is that part of me is laughing my @$$ off knowing that she is in such a shallow relationship. The sad thing is that part of me feels great sorrow for her. A woman that once had morals has been reduced to a shell. The first of June, it's rumored (by her) that she will be shacking up with this man. Bringing my children into the unhealthy mess even further. <p>I do ask that all of you pray her, my girls, and lastly myself.<p>PS. Mr. Man is SO GREAT and owns his own home and everything but guess what, he's not going to let the girls bring their cats. Looks like my cat support is changing to primary custodian. Unless something changes I'll be fighting to change the status of the children as well.

I can't believe she would say that other than to hurt you..very mean spirited for sure.. [img]images/icons/frown.gif" border="0[/img] <p>I don't know what to say about the cat..other than
it's blest to have you to support it too..<p>I have to admit though I did laugh about the cat food..only because my ex got a cat..knowing he wouldn't take the cat w/ him on the road..because his job requires so much travel, he had the cat a few months and had to go back out of town to work..and asked the kids if they could keep the cat here..so he wouldn't have to take her to the pound..the kids told him "he would have to talk to me, as they couldn't just bring home a cat"..so he tells them 'forget it, he'd just take the cat to the pound and they could put it to sleep'
they break down in tears and call me asking if they can keep the cat..I told them I'd have to think about it.. I asked to talk to him and he finally asked me if I could keep his cat..he agreed to buy the food and kitty litter..asked him how long it would be for..and all..and I agree to keep his cat..the kids would call him when they needed kitty litter and cat food..after three months of keeping his cat, he starts complaining that he can't afford to buy the cat food and litter anymore..and he said that "I'd" have to start buying it..or "YOU" could just take it to the pound..<p>I was angry he manipulated the kids about the cat to begin with.."well, if your mom won't let you take the cat, then I'll have to have it put to sleep" and then for him to think that I'd just take the cat because he 'didn't' want to buy the food and litter anymore..<p>that weekend when he came in town to get the kids, I packed the cat's things and give him back his cat..I was soooo angry..I didn't want a cat..
I'd agreed to watch the cat..not take his cat..
I like the cat..but..I struggle financially as it is..and cat food/litter is expensive and I'd rather use that extra $20 a month on my kids than on a cat..<p>it just so happened that he was going to be working back in town again for awhile..but he didn't say that when he told me he couldn't afford the cat..and that "I" could buy the food or take the cat to the pound...from what the kids have said, he still has the cat..he just didn't want to take responsiblity for it..<p>I wasn't going to be manipulated again by him in doing something I didn't want to do..I didn't want a cat..and wasn't going to have one forced on me..
especially when I know I can't afford it, and I wasn't going to be the one to decide to take HIS cat to the pound or not..knowing that my kids were attached to the cat..I don't mean to sound heartless towards the cat..as to say I don't care what he does w/ it..but it was his choice to get a cat..it should be up to him if he takes it to the pound..<p>but if you want the kids to have the cat and she can't afford to keep the cat..then offer to take w/ you especially if your the one who is buying the food..

Zippy, respectfully, you are wrong.<p>They weren't cleaning his dentures, they only do that on holidays.<p>She was giving him an enema. You see, being that old the poor fellow has problems with his plumbing, he was a little backed up. I just hope he was able to hold it till he made it to the bathroom. Not like last time....

Hey now, Respectfully to all..not everyone that age has dentures and get's enema's..Don't mean to steal your thread LostH, but had to comment on this age thing..<p>49 really doesn't seem that old the closer you get there..I've only got about 10 more years..<p>but yes, in a relationship 10 years CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!! <p>It's a difference between 1st grade and graduating highschool..<p>
but the 20 years difference is even greater..<p>between birth and parenthood..<p>(my step mom was born the year my dad graduated highschool and joined the Navy)<p>Hank Sr. and Hank Junior's style of music..<p>The Beatles and Boy George<p>Janis Joplin and The GoGo's<p>8 Track Tapes and CD Players..<p>hmmmm...the difference 20 years can make..

"(I live in Kansas and we've had 3 days of gail force winds)".....<p>Oh GREAT, it's because of YOU I've been eating dirt the last three days!<p>"Respectfully to all..not everyone that age has dentures and get's enema's.."<p>I'm glad you put that in there TR! At 47 years and 107 days I hope I'm light years from dentures and enema's! [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] AND I don't understand any relationship interest in someone who is my son's age! <p>Hey Bill, have you checked, does this guy have "adult children"? What is his story anyway?<p>If he is already planning on kicking out the cats, IG is in for a real shocker, when "Romeo" does the same with three young girls and she can't understand why. That'd be a REAL fog lifter! Hopefully you'll have custody of the girls before that can happen! Grrrrrrr.......<p>Gayle

I don't know how many marriages or kids.<p>BTW, Y'all sure are being cruel to the poor old man. Dentures lol Enima LOL<p>Did anyone consider that maybe she was changing his depends because he had that not so fresh feeling.

Bill,<p>Considering where we all started and what we've all been through, I can honestly say that the whole premise of this post cracked me up. The situation itself was not the pleasant I'm sure, but you've presented it in that way of yours which just made me grin from ear to ear. <p>It's nice to see that you haven't lost your sense of humor!<p>Take care my friend.
