Why do they always make such a difficult decision so easy??
BF's that is. So we are "engaged" (no egagement ring but we had said July this year and have the wedding bands) and I have been truly looking at my role in this family and undecided if I was actually gonna be able to go through it. I have real issues with the fact that BM #2 (ex wife) will be a constant part of my life. I am having a big problem accepting that as my lifes fate. I just found out this afternoon that BF has been lying to me (yet again, we just went through this in July, August, September and October 2006) about his contact with his daughters BM (BM#2). As I previously found out (all those months in 2006) he is still doing the same crap. All up her a$$ and chatting about everything, his plans...her plans...etc. Shit they don't need to be talking about. Especially when it involves me! I gave him chance after chance after chance to fix this. We set up a joint email account so that all communication could be viewed by both of us. Because she knows that email is a joint account, she only sends stuff about the kids. So I thought it was working we were all being informed about the things we needed to be informed about. Well, as usual BF set up a "schedule" for them to discuss other aspects of their lives (ummmm yeah me and my life were discussed and commented upon amongst themselves) while he was at work. This has happened in the past, so I have access to all his cell phone records. Apparently, he has been chatting from his work phone as for me to not find out. But, like the idiot he is (well, maybe I am the idiot for letting him continuously do this to me) slipped up and said something about some party BM was going to after she picked up SD. When I said hmmmmm well this is the first I have heard of that (I don't care where she goes...just wonder how he knows) and once I said that it was "....oh....ummmmmmm....well.....didn't she mention that in an email that she sent to the joint account about the kids?" Yeah not likely considering this is the first I have heard of it. So, anyway, sounds like he is up to his old tricks again...stupid me to actually think he would stop this crap. Afterall, he HAS to talk to her about all this stuff cause she might take away his visits with his daughter. At least that is what he says. Needless to say, he and I will not share "wedded bliss." Once I am able to financially get the hell out of here I am sooooooooooooooooo gone. I know I can't go back in time but if I could I would have left him the first time this happened. Before I quit my job to take care of HIS kids. One of which disrespects me at all costs, I suppose it was all worth it.....NOT!

this is just my opinion: if
this is just my opinion: if you are aggrevated now about having to deal w/exwife now, i don't think you'll survive in the future being in this relationship. if i knew what i knew before i met my husband...i wouldn't get involved w/a man who has exwife w/children period. it's challenging and after 7 yrs into the marriage i haven't fully accept the fact that exwife is in my life. your bf needs to follow your wants & wishes to truly gain your trust. i can honestly say that since he shares his whole life story w/his ex, it will be hard for him to just stop suddenly. & yes you are right when you say ex does not have to know anything else about him & you. that discussion w/her & him should only be about the children and yes, you should be informed or included in the decision making too.

Oh Man
I am only married six months and am dealing with the same issue. Can I continue to stay with my DH if he can't tell me the truth about his ex and his relationship? It's so ridiculous. Me and my ex are totally professional....him and his...no boundaries. I am sick of it. From everything I read on these boards I don't really have hope anymore that I have what it takes to hang in there. I'd rather be alone than feel like I'm married to a bigomyst.
me too :-(

I know it might be difficult
I know it might be difficult for you. But i think you just have to accept it and just let things go. - Mallory Fleming
