dm? Just a thought.......but you haven't met "him" yet!? Your ex seems to be "protecting" her b/f from something she is anticipating will go wrong.....when you haven't even made your good wishes for them known. Am I right? If I'm wrong....then pardon me for assuming!
I know this is a sticky situation for you all (you and CA and your ex and fiancee) but....instead of wasted energy (anger), why not propose a meeting to get aquainted and to relieve some of the tension of the unknown factors? If this isn't an option.......as I think it would do wonders for all involved......then what Chey said is excellent advice!
I don't know the facts about your pending divorce and custody case......but, now that there is another involved....it seems to me the perimeters should be examined again....as four adults....with emotions set aside for the sake of R's future!
Try and help your ex see that this is about R...and not just about the four adults involved! If handled delicately....with regard to all feelings involved.......it could work out better than it seems to be heading.
(((((((((dm & CA))))))))))
Please keep us in mind whenever you need to vent! PM me ANYTIME! I'm always here to lend an ear!
P.S. I know of what I speak as I was a step-mom once (in my first marriage).....and we all found an amicable solution for my step-son's sake.....to the point of being friends with the ex wife! But it took some long talks and understanding on all parts!
I wish you the best hun!
P.P.S. Just read Steph's reply......^5 my sister from a different mister!
