Please, not across the street...
I'm asking for prayers and good vibes to be sent my way.
SS's mommy called about renting a house RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM US. Apparently, the house may already be rented and she's waiting for confirmation of that. Please cross fingers that it is.
Thank goodness my DH can see a downside to her being there. It would be different it we were a few more years down the road and she ended up a couple blocks away in the same development and SS could walk or bike to us anytime he wanted. That would be AWESOME! Right now, though, it's our neighborhood where we're setting up our life together (for us as a couple and for the three of us as a family) and I'd rather not feel like she's looking across the street all the time.
I know she's got to stay in certain areas for her older son to go to school where he wants and I really want them to find a wonderful place to live with all the stuff they want. I just have to say I'd rather it wasn't so close. SS is the MOST IMPORTANT part of the equation but she's part of the deal, too.
I know I can't control what happens but if I could, I'd ask for a little more distance.

vibes coming your way
I will cross my fingers, toes and eyes for you!! I hope it all works out!!
Biomom moved into a rental house about 3 min. from our house that we had just purchased. We didn't get to enjoy our first house too long before she invaded the area!! It stinks!!
Good luck!

That is HORRIBLE!! Does she
That is HORRIBLE!! Does she still have feelings for your husband?! No woman in her right mind would choose to live right across the street from her ex and his new wife!!! I’d watch out for her, I don’t think her intentions are good…
Ya, too close for comfort..
You do have to wonder ... why so close? I can see same school district ect for the sake of the child...but across the street..that's just creepy!!
She needs to get a clue and a map
Hey Smit,
When is this woman ever going to get a clue, and a map???? How long before she gets a clue hat she's not wanted anywhere closeby? Someone better speak up before you have to become part of the neighborhood "welcome wagon". It's simply too close for comfort.
We simply had to move. Biomom started moving in too close for our comfort and invading our personal space. Unless, you've decided to send her a map and outline the areas that she's allowed to live.
It doesn't sound too much that she's planning to let go of her grip on the ex-husband, which can't be good. I wouldn't like it, and frankly, if she moved in, the next thing, I'd do, would be to get a realtor, and put my house up for sale. The following day. My advice would be have your husband say something before she decides that this is where she decides she wants to move. You don't want to have to be staring her in the face--morning, noon, and night. It's not a good thing. The only thing else that could save you is that the place is already rented. What does your husband think about this?
Regards,
Sweetie
I'm mystified...
The thing I'm most greatful for is that my husband also thinks it's' too close. He said so three times last night. She called about something with SS and, of course, mentioned the house. She thought my husband had seen the sign and not told her about it on purpose. Then she said she was just joking or teasing. Oh, come on! Anyway, I heard her say that she needed to call the guy again to find out whether it's rented. Apparently, the first man she talked to wasn't the owner and didn't know for sure.
This sucks. We just bought our house in March of this year. We're still making it and the neighborhood "ours." We don't need this.
My husband insists she has no feelings for him but he doesn't see that she's a control freak. She wants to keep some kind of hold or control on him. I don't understand it.
If she'd move on with another man, it would be different. Speaking of... how weird is this? Late last year when she was seeing someone, she told my husband that she and her boyfriend weren't having sex--"doing the Christian thing" was how she put it. Why in the hell did she need to tell him that? It's inappropriate things like that that show some weird need in her to be too familiar and too "friendly." She needs to talk to her girlfriends about that kind of stuff, NOT to my husband.
Anyway, all I'm doing is waiting to hear that she can't get that house. Thanks for everybody's support!
Can YOU GUYS find someone to
Can YOU GUYS find someone to rent it QUICK!!!! Can you "rent it" yourselves..then sublet it right away to anybody else but her??!!!!
Ps That's devious...I know! But if it was my BF's x (or my x)were moving across the street from me...... Desperate times call for desperate measures! And a couple hundreds bucks to keep her away from my street....it would be a SMALL PRICE TO PAY for our sanity!!!!!!
(If she did move in .... she would see us kissing & hugging in the window every day of her life)
wish we could!
If there was anything we could do to keep her from living there, we would! Even if the house hasn't rented yet, I truly don't know that she could afford it. Houses like that don't rent for less than what her current rent is and I know she struggles with it.
I think I might sneak out of our house late tonight and hide the "for rent" sign! Let me have a couple of margaritas and stay outta my way!
No Way!
I'm so sorry you have to even think of her moving across the street. She seems insane! Yes I will certainly pray for you so that doesn't happen. It seems she is really trying to upset you and destroy your peace. Put everything in God's hands ....God is good.
OMG!
I can not even imagine having my hubby's ex living across the street from us. I'm afraid something very very bad would happen to her if that ever happened! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and keep you in my thoughts and prayers that this does not happen!
My sister and my friends think she's NUTS!
OK, so I ran this situation by a couple of friends and my sister. I just wanted to know that I'm not going overboard in my desire to NOT have her as our neighbor. Everyone had the same reaction--mouths dropped open, eyes got huge, and they said, "What?! Is she crazy?"
