Ex's...

Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive October 2008: Ex's...
By Tarable on Monday, October 13, 2008 - 03:32 pm:

Why do they have to be so stupid sometimes? My ex had my girls this past weekend (if you can call Friday from 4 until Saturday at 5:45 a weekend). He did 2 things that not only made me see red but upset my girls a lot.

1. He told them that he was really broke right now (like it isn't for everyone) and that he probably wasn't going to be able to buy them anything for Christmas... What.. he can buy a brand new pair of $140 shoes that I noticed when we traded off the kids, but he can't even spend $10 on a token gift for the girls (they are old enough to understand not getting much).. he is so Selfish!!! And I know that his precious son will have a ton of gifts under the tree from him...

2. The state fair is open until the end of Oct. So all the kids around here get a day off school sometime in Oct. (normally columbus day) and a free ticket only good during the week so they can go. Well my lovely ex told the girls that he was taking today off work to take his son to the fair but didn't even offer to take them (knowing they didn't have school and had free tickets). My oldests even said something about it and he said that our house was too far out of his way (we live about 10 miles off the highway that he would have to go on to get to the fair from his house). I would have given them money to eat and extra just to spend if he would have taken them. I don't have any time to take off because of all the time i was off for surgery.

Am I wrong to be upset by these things?

No, you are not wrong. What a jerk, be glad he's an ex.

By Bellajoe on Monday, October 13, 2008 - 05:31 pm:

gosh no. I could use another word for him but I can't on this board...so I will just call him a major jerk!!

I could come up with a few dozen words myself for a loser like that, how awful for your girls!!

Nothing like making your girls feel worthless. Good grief. 10 miles (20 round trip) isn't THAT far out of the way.

No, you are not wrong. And I won't even get started on a conversation about this because this kinda stuff really gets me going! GRRRRR

It's a good thing your girls have you, sweetie. I'm really sad for them and I hope a man in their future will treat them better than he ever could.

You are not wrong at all. He sounds very selfish and self centered.

Nice guy, no wonder he is an ex...
