break up and 10 weeks later....
hi all. we broke up back in april and been doing well. this site helped so much then. thanks for all the positive and not so positive advice. some i like some i didnt but it was all so helpful and addressing the situation!!!! been keeping busy and giving all my love to my kids (3). she had one who she though was the second coming.... the imbalance and consideration was sad and hurtful and i could not take the resentment anylonger. we were going to move in together this summer and i broke it up over issues that were small to her but big and real to me.

we broke up, its sad
thanks for the the support given. its been since monday she gave back the ring. still obv feeling the pain. i had nothing left to give. tried to communicate i was hurt by actions of excluding us often and the anxiety i would have if i would need something from her. felt she knew she didnt want to give as much as i offered to her. i could have acted the way she did so there would have been a balance but it is not my nature and not how i was raised (we have opposite upbringings). there were no issues with the kids (i have 3 she had 1).

step dad and his kids excluded
im a father of 3 with with a typical visitation schedule. my new fiancee has one child. im a great father for all for kids. i always extend and treated hers like mine. i grew frustrated because the feelings are not the same. my kids were not invited to her son bday. he turned 7. i was asked to save the date by my finacee and would not switch weekends with my ex wife due to his party when she wanted me to switch. then the kids were not invited. it was only school friends. this is something i would never consider doing.i always include him in anything we due.
