My complaint...

Today I don't have much to say, I am kind of stupefied by an encounter with my ex-husband. I have some contact with him, but I try to limit it for he is, just in my opinion, an a**. But as I sit here, I realize my anger and frustration boils down to just one thing. How come a man who can walk out on his children, have almost no contact for 3 years, be the same man who will not get out of MY life? Why does he ignore his kids, not contact them, but constantly email and call me? Me the woman who would love to never hear from him again, but not the kids that adore him , and want him in their lives?

(Just to be clear on one thing I have tried my hardest and hopefully succeeded in not bad mouthing, slamming, or putting down the kid's dad. I allow them all contact with him. I make sure that holiday and birthday cards or gifts are sent to him. They get to call him anytime they want. He is the one who doesn't call or return calls, who doesn't send cards or gifts, including for Christmas and birthdays. )
