I am so fed up with the constant drama between me and my ex! I wish I could just leave it all behind me but when you share a daughter together it never goes away!! We have never been to court but right now he has my daughter so I can get myself on my feet, get a job and a place of my own. Giving her to him was the hardest decision I have ever made, but he was more on his feet than me and had more of a support system. So far he's done good, except for how hateful he is to me. He constantly puts me down and he never take a blame for his own actions. The first year of Mya's life he had many chances to be with her but he chose not to! I tried my hardest to let him be a part of her life. I drove and hour and a half to drop her off and gave him the trust to keep her for the weekends and sometimes more. He never helped me with gas money. And now he has her and he won't do the same for me. He says he won't waste his time bringing her to me and he won't let me have her over night. He drives me up a wall and I wish people saw how horrible he can be!!!
Sorry to hear that's rough. I can relate. You say he is being a good father with hoes he is doing with her. Can you appeal to that sense of being a good father by talking with him calmly around what's best fir your daughter? Would he listen to you share that what is best for her is to be around both? Maybe there is something you can do for her that he would be willing to drive her there? Last resort If you have a court order for any kind of custody, you can always find a free legal service to help. They are in every state.
I know exactly what you are dealing with. If you wish to talk to someone who has first hand experience....I am happy to talk. Or even just listen.
Don't lose hope....everything is going to be alright. Pm me anytime.
