| #1 | My boyfriend and I have been dating for the past 6...almost 7 months and I feel stressed about my ex husband being in my daughters life. My boyfriend wishes that my ex was just completely out of the picture. He is a REALLY great guy and wishes that he was the only father figure in my daughters life. He doesn't really care for my ex...I'm sure because of the stories I have told him about how my treated me when we were together. He is trying to deal with the fact that my daughters father wants to be around, but he still has a really hard time. It's almost like he gets bothered when my daughter (who is 3) talks about her daddy and he absolutely hates when my ex calls me even though we don't converse about anything but my daughter. When I tell him I spoke to my ex on the phone about him picking up my daughter he asks me how long we stayed on the phone. Does anyone have ideas whereas I can help him feel more comfortable and loosen up about my ex? |

| #2 | My opinion is if your boyfriend is struggling now with your ex, it will only get worse as time goes on. As you daughter gets older she will bond even more w/ her father. This will likely irritate your boyfriend/or possible husband over time and will make your relationship very difficult. It's not worth it...find a guy who can handle not only your child's love for her father, but handle your relationship w/ your ex which is going to last for the REST OF YOUR LIFE!!!! No reason to make things more difficult for you and your daughter by staying w/ this guy. |
