Irked!!! -Vent-

I'm really pissed off right now. I NEED to vent. Mostly because of my DH's ex. Her latest stunt takes the cake. I'll explain as much as I can without giving away too much information. I'm not really afraid of being found here. I haven't added anything in that wasn't true about the history here.

Anyway,long story short DH has again got his son a cell phone under DH account. This wasn't a problem at all that isn't what I'm saying. It is just that the BM doesn't have a phone anymore because hers got shut off for owing lots on it. I guess she expected my DH to pay it off for her. She always has all of these expectations. She expects all of her wants taken care of. Like she's a Queen to appease.

He will pay the bills that will directly hurt his kids. This on top of his support and paying for everything else too. Like keeping the water on after she got a three day notice. This has happened twice at least. He doesn't feel like his kids should have to suffer through that because she doesn't care about doing anything to better her situation. He's paid her electric bill because it was shut off. He keeps her afloat and she hasn't the sense to be thankful for it. It is just expected for her. Yet,he's just the most horrid bastard on two feet!

When he didn't pay the huge bill off her phone got shut off. She thought he would just keep providing and providing and have nothing to say or never stop doing so. Like he should do this or that like he owes her. She was used to him just putting up with her and giving her her way. She still expects to get her way. She thought he would just keep right on dishing out money out of guilt. Guilt can be a useful tool. Guilt can be lots of things for manipulative people. He's tired of her. He's tired of being USED and expectations put upon everyone but her.

The problems have surfaced because the very day that the cell phone was activated - BM decided to call her friends on it. She knows that phone isn't hers. She I guess just doesn't care and thinks DH will tolerate it. She just had to call her buddy. The people to whom she complains about DH to. Yep. Call and complain about someone who is paying for the phone you are talking on?? What kind of effed up logic is that? She has these people fooled. The people who believe the distortions she feeds them. Those people that tell her she's got the short end of the stick. They think her something that she isn't.

She's all about appearing as something she isn't. She wants to appear super creative so she writes poetry. Yet,she researches for hours just what word to use. Most of the time with the use of a thesaurus. I don't call that creativity. Yet,people praise her for writing down things that did not come from inside of HER mind. Anyone can pick up a thesaurus and find a fancier word for tree or branch or cloud. This doesn't instantly make them a creative soul to be ooh'd and ahh'd over. What do you think??? Appearances are everything for her.

Anyway,she thinks it OK to use a phone that DH pays for for his son. She is just so head over heels for some stupid fool. She just HAD to call him and has been calling him everyday on a phone that isn't hers nor that she pays for. She's just such a tick sometimes. The kind that gorge themselves but never seem to fall off!

She gets use out of every single thing DH provides for his kids. When he got them a pc - she took it over. It even got moved into her room where she controlled the use of it. I guess DH and I probably have an issue with her benefiting from DH's gifts to them. She just wants her claws into everything. If kid got an mp3 player it wasn't long before she was choosing songs to go on it so she could use it too. Go buy your own - hag! Same thing with video games. Ugh. Am I petty??? Ever felt like this???

I would be putting a big fat stop to all that!
In my case BM tried to get DH to pay for bills so utilities didn't get shut off. He did a few times but that was BEFORE he met me! The next time she called with one of these "my utilities are getting shut off" spill I was right there to inform her "It is not and will not ever be OUR responsibility to pay YOUR bills. If your utilities get shut off we will be picking up SD and you can visit her at OUR house until you get your mess cleaned up." And that is EXACTLY what we did. We picked up SD and she had to come visit her at our house. She didn't pull that bunch of crap again.
I would suggest getting SS a cell that only calls certain numbers so she cant use it. These women are not mothers they are leeches! It is sick that some women USE their kids to get material things for themselves rather that getting off their lazy backsides and providing a decent life for them.
WELL BEHAVED WOMEN RARELY MAKE HISTORY!!

My H does lots for his son and the BM is a hag too. She complains about everything and how DH is an S.O.B. However ours does work and we do not pay any of her bills she uses her astronomical amount of child support to do that. I would be upset too. What is your custody arrangement? I understand your H paying so the kids do not have to suffer from their lazy BM but I also very much see the point of that crap needs to come to a stop. Looks like BM knows though guilting (H and I are very familiar with that) that she can get H to do whatever she needs and uses the kids as her Trump card! How evil! I liked Mommyoftwo's idea of a cell phone that only can call certain numbers like that one Verizon had what was it the Amigo?

JustmeM, have you guys been documenting everytime she asks your DH for money to pay her bills? I would consult an attorney and seriously consider going for full custody. If she can't support her children and alLows her utilities to be shut off on a regular basis they would be better off in a more stable environment with you and your DH.

EVERYTIME this situation arisies with the money/ bills/shutoffs.

Oh, and if I were you- Id, tell my DH to GROW A PAIR and cut the ex off completely!

If he's really concerned about his son, then he should go for full custody, noting that she is creating an unsafe enviornment and not able to provide for him. Like 'MommyofTwo' said- take the son out of the house the next time the utilitites get shut off.

This ex is TOTALLY playing him and he's a willing participant!

Sorry to sound harsh, but as the NEW WIFE, you have to put a stop to this kind of stuff or it's going to create a ton of resentment in your marriage- I know, I've been there!

...not by paying off BM's bills. That's ludicrous. I agree with Stepping Stones, too. A few parental controls will take care of BM using the phone.

take the skids out of that environment. Refuse to return them when visitation is over b/c of no electricity, water or whatever. you might get taken back to court, but no judge is going to punish you for protecting your child.....unless you live in New Mexico, I hear they are pretty bad there....hehehe Wink

you're totally not wrong, this is exactly why we haven't gotten SD a cell phone, b/c we knew her mother would use it, ring up the bill, and hand it over to us to pay, I don't blame you one bit!
