Blended Families

Vent

Background: BD and I have DS(4.5) who BD gets EOWE and BD has a DD(2), or E, with XG. XG and BD are currently in a court battle over custody of E. Right now BD has the temporary CO of EOWE with E that coincide with his EOWE with DS.

This morning I wake up to two missed calls and 5 texts from BD. He says he is off extra days this weekend, so he wanted to pick DS up at noon today and return DS Monday evening, and spend the weekend down in XG's town (3.5 hours away). I tell him it's not going to work out. He's all shocked since I'm normally overly accommodating. I ask what he plans to do for the weekend, and he says he's not sure if he's going to take DS for the weekend anymore. I say just let me know when you know. This evening I text and ask what he plans to do, and he says he's already down in XG's town and won't be taking DS. His loss.

He's probably going to get back together with XG, which is going to SUCK. XG is a total PITA - controlling, manipulative, and a b!tch who pretends to be nice. Ugh, ugh, UGH. That, or XG will be super friendly and take advantage of BD and find a way to screw him over for the CO which is set to be finalized next month. I know it's awful, but I hope it's the latter (and that BD recognizes it) because I seriously don't want to deal with that BSC girl again.

Okay, vent over.

  • You were smart to mitigate your son's exposure.  Stick to the CO for the next little while until BD gets his act together.

    Right? He was so shocked that I said no. He is CO'd EO Thursday-Saturday. I've let him take Friday-Sunday the past few weeks so that DS gets to see his sister the full time, so DS isn't in the car for 7 hours on Friday while BD is driving down to pick up his DD and drive back up, and due to BD's work schedule. I feel like those reasons are legitimate, so I don't mind the change too much. But him asking to take DS for 4.5 days and wants to pick him up in a few hours? And he thought I would say yes? He's delusional.
