Got divorced 5 years ago from kids BM after she told me to move out,kids were 13 and 11 then,I moved into a flat by myself and my kids visited every weekend,kids BM found new boyfriend and she visited him every few months and stayed for several days, I was single and not working then so I looked after my kids and the dog in their BM house when she was away.kids BM then had baby with new guy and he moved in with her and my kids,problem started when I met new girlfriend who lived 70 miles away online. We had baby and I decided to move in with her and baby as my kids are 18,16 now,I told kids BM that I would no longer be staying over in her house as I have new baby,I said I would visit my kids in their town and some weekends ID pay bus fares and they could come and stay with me,girlfriend and baby and her 11 year old son. Kids BM wasn't happy as she wanted to go away on breaks with her boy and their new child so she went to solicitor,she expected me to bring my new child to her house for up to a week and look after my kids and her dog so they could go away.I went to my solicitor and eventually kids BM gave up as kids are 18,16.I havnt spoke to kids BM in 8 months. I'm angry she went to solicitor to suit herself.I have been seeing my kids in their town and they have stayed at mine and my girlfriend's at weekends.I'm angry still at kids BM for going to solicitor when I thought we were still good friends,I got a sum of money recently and helped out kids BM with money to pay off debts and this is how she repays me? She tried to tell my kids me looking after them in her house when her and her boyfriend go away is for them. It's really to suit her.frank

I'd never been in that situation so I thought me doing what she wanted was best for my kids who were 13 and 11 then and were devastated at our split,I got to see kids more,I always thought when they grew up I could move on.

No one can treat you like a doormat unless you allow them to. You've allowed it. No point in cimplaining over it.
