ugggh!!
I'm single and have no kids. I recently broke up with a guy who has 2 kids. I've been out-of-state on business for 3 months and won't be back home for another 6 weeks. our breakup occurred around 5 weeks ago, mainly because he wasn't calling me or texting me and I was finding out that he and the BM were suddenly amicable and becoming bff's.....for the kids sake of course.
anyway, he has been trying to weezle his way back into my life this week and he just DOESN'T GET IT. For example, I told him that I am planning on buying a home in X town when I move back. He announced, "Oh, that is really close to where BM lives, but it's ok. If we get together again, I will get to see my kids more if you move there." In other words, he thinks his kids will be coming over to mu house all the time when he visits? I don't think so.
I also mentioned how I don't think he has the time it takes to commit to a woman, since he's so busy with his kids. I kindly reminded him that he was so busy, that he only called me once/week after I moved, and how that is not the way it's supposed to be. His response? "Well, when u are back in town, it will be different. You will be here at the house with US and I won't have to text u." I let this one go. I just didn't have the energy.
The breakup still burns because he can be sooooo sweet and loving. And I really do love how wonderful he is to his kids, but my God, he has them allll the time. How does he expect the 2 of us to build a foundation of our own with his kids around constantly? And his ex wife is someone he couldn't STAND a year ago, but now, her shit smells like roses. WTF?
Are you wanting to get back
Are you wanting to get back together with him? If not, it's probably best to not have these conversations with him, since he's obviously still very much attached to his ex. Even even managed to talk about her in a convo about where YOU will live.
All I can think here is
All I can think here is NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. You are out and done. You don't have to deal with any of that. Can you imagine how horrible to have the skids over YOUR place more????
Ugh, no
My suggestion is to bid this
My suggestion is to bid this man farewell and cut him loose. I know it's a lot easier said than done, but read some of the stories that are posted here. Do you want that for yourself? There are many more fish in the sea.
