Tired, cranky, and this stuff is getting OLD.

One of my blogs that never made it up was all about DH texting SD and telling her how sorry he is for being a terrible father, and how all he wanted was her happiness, and he tried to give her the space she wanted...blah, blah, f'n blah.

It's all BS, of course. HE was the one who drove all over the damn state for her volleyball. BM sure as hell wouldn't do that. HE was the one who took her shopping, allowed her shitty ass adult BF around to "give him a chance," whatever.

Now that SD is knocked up, he is right back to chasing her down. Now it includes apologies for everything under the sun, praises for what a "wonderful" young woman she is, etc.
Blech.

Only difference now is that SD seems open to having daddy around.

And daddy is thrilled.

For the record, I would be, too. I mean, if one of my kids wrote me off, it would really, really hurt, and I'd be thrilled if/when their mind changed.

So he sees the U/S pic on FB, because he is SS's "friend" and he had shared it. SD has refused to "friend" him because...well, she's like that.

After seeing the U/S pics and texting her, he emailed her to ask about friending him. Back and forth. Him basically pleading to be "let in," and telling her how excited he is to be a grandfather.

She emails him back and tells him she'll friend him IF he doesn't comment on anything, and she most certainly doesn't want him to EVER post anything that isn't completely in support of her and her views.

He basically told her that he hopes she feels strongly enough in her beliefs to engage in some adult conversation if it ever comes up. At least he didn't jump in and promise her he'd "behave" to get in her good graces.

I'm cranky, though. I am under big pressure to complete a project, and dear, sweet, DH needs attention when he's home. He wants to talk about everything, and he's clearly lonely. Thank you, 4-10 weeks. I went to the law library to do some research today, across the county, and he showed up. Said he wanted the extra key to one of our extra cars that I had in my purse. :? Then stayed to chat for awhile. Honey, I love you, but I need to get this done!

And I really, really don't want to hear about how SD has totally changed and really wants to be in our lives and how he's excited about being a grandfather. He's also pretty bummed that we now live 1500 miles away from her...we *just* moved!!

Hopefully you realize it's ALL just needy BS. SD needs daddy right now and daddy needs SD's approval & acceptance. Sounds like an entire co-dependent, "I need validation" nightmare for you. Sad

^^This is what I'm afraid of.

I'm sure she's wanting money/stuff, etc.
I am really worried that this is all a ploy, she's needy right now, and then she's going to screw him over hard when the baby arrives.
