Don't feel sorry for ree at all. How you get them is how you lose them & all that jazz. More fool her having two kids with a bloke who so easily walked away from his original two children to play happily families with her.
Yeah so crazy how it played out like Megan’s situation. A boy first, then a girl then they break up
There were so many red flags and now she’s got 2 kids by him, no ring, no house, no car. I’m sure she loves her babies but he really just entered her life and brought drama and stress, added even more stress and new responsibilities and now he’s off to the next one. Sheesh
Ree is right though. Most co-parenting I know would be okay if they only talked about the kids and didn’t still want to be in each other’s families, doing days out and being “friends”. The more you know about each other’s lives, more chance of finding out things that will hurt your feelings and more chance of arguing.
You broke up. Your baby dad’s family isn’t your family. Family days out? You aren’t a family anymore. Ex’s can’t be friends.
I think this is only a major issue if there’s still feelings involved or somebody is hoping to get back together. If you genuinely don’t care for the person anymore, I don’t see anything wrong with wanting to be cordial and come together at least for special events like birthdays.
Going out of your way to avoid the new gf/bf for no reason is weird in my opinion. If it’s someone your ex cheated on you with or someone who was rude to you in the past I can see why no effort would be made but again, if there’s no prior history and they didn’t really do anything, I’d rather have a decent relationship with the person my child is gonna be around than act indifferent or distant towards them.
I think Ree took that same approach with Megan initially and coupled with the fact that she was the girl Dylan ‘cheated’ on Megan with and who knows what else that was said/done behind the scenes by Megan and Billie or even Dylan—there was little to no chance for her and Megan to be civil towards each other.
