mentaly insane that is all I can say. I try not to talk bad about him but there are times when I can't help it. He is getting married tomorrow to wife number 4. Believe me I don't care but he called tonight because the kids have yet to send him a gift. He has not sent them anything for christmas or birthdays for 2 years and he is mad that he didn't get a gift for his marriage. Ugh!!!!!!!!!!
Our OD gets married in 30 days. He of course has not contributed 1 dime to the wedding. He said it will cost him alot of money to drive up here and stay in a hotel so he can't afford to help with the wedding. He then went on to say that he and new bride are going to mexico for 7 days on a honeymoon.
I think he is only coming to the wedding to look like the "Great Dad" to his new wife. Yeah the great dad who hasn't helped her at all for 4 years. The great dad who hasn't called his YS for 6 mos.
My OD told her grandfather my ex father-inlaw that she hoped her dad didn't come. He said he knew how she felt and that he was very disappointed about how he has treated the kids. I just hope he doesn't ruin the day for her she has worked so hard to make it nice.
I just hope I have the strength to deal with him next month. There has been alot of stuff come out the past month or so about him that makes me so angry. Alot of it is things I found out about that he did while we were married. He had an affair when my OD was 1 yr old. I was working and he was messing with a friend of oursin our home while he was taking care of the baby. She came clean to me not to long ago. It certainly didn't hurt me just made me feel like a fool. I then found out at a family reunion not to long ago that he hit on my cousin more than once. Again I felt like a idiot not seeing all the signs all of those years.
Anyway I am done ranting. I just needed to vent.
Thanks for listening
Jill

I am sorry your exH has been acting like that, and that there were previous infidelities. I think that it is quite possible that he (and mine) are insane, because their behavior is so far from rational. Mere facts will never get in the way of their "logic."
My H has said previously that it was too expensive to drive here very often - yet he chose a new vehicle that gets 10-14 miles per gallon. It is never too much money if it is something he wants.
