I make all my nieces repeat Unca 'Mar's Rule #1:All guys are lying scum!
Some of them ask, "Even you, Unca 'Mar?"
I give a small nod, "Yes hun, even me."
Some of my sisters dont approve; but forewarned is forearmed!

Wow, it's like stepping back in time and reliving my life with my (now) husband. Well, except that she wasn't lyrically beautiful. She is blond though and evil to the bone. She told my oldest stepson once that (and I quote) "If it wasn't for child support I wouldn't want you." Yes, you can just feel the love can't you? Hateful is not quite the word. I could fill a book with the hateful things she's done. It's not just us either. Try going to court and both sets of counsel (yours and hers) both hate her equally and want it over with. You are right, she'll be in your life forever. But the hate will subside (some) if you move away (at least 500 miles preferably, we're at a comfortable distance of 641 miles one way.) Then you can just count the days until the last child reaches 18 at a safe distance. Good luck.
I'm in agreement with the above...the advice and the bits about not giving it.
You've got me beat for unreasonable people stories. Hands down.
Then again, you could end up being a great influence in his and his kids' life. That's not such a bad thing either if you can keep your distance from the ex.
Let me know if you're ever going to be on Springer
Right now I really, really want to counsel you to get the hell away from that situation, which could only lead to you and the bunch of them ending up on daytime TV.
