A broken Father's love.

[michellecares]

Yesterday, I saw for the very first time my ex-husband put someone ahead of his daughter in the most dramatic way. I will never understand why when men get new girlfriends that the only person feelings that matters is the new girlfriend. Especially, from a relationship that has only been going on for three months and not the whole time during that

He does not hit. He works in other ways. It's funny you used the title of narcissistic behavior. I just recently gave that title myself to him. He is seeking counseling, because I think he realizes now that he might lose his daughter altogether if all this keeps up. Plus he must play hero and I am sure it's been twisted that it is something he is doing for our daughter. He even tried to act like she was having emotional problems, so it justified his behavior somehow. She was very cool and adult through it all. He was the only drama queen.

My daughter and I already are making plans now. She now realizes all these years he has used his sorrow and lies to keep her from coming down here.

I have had counseling. He can't hurt me and that is part of the problem. He can only make me hurt for my daughter, but she has to deal with that. I can't fix it.

Thank you for your advice. This sounds like I am not strong, but I assure you I am. Was week and gullible at some points in my life, but not now.

I actually feel sorry for the GF. He puts up a great front for a long time.

He is trying to back track now, because the whole situation has made him come out as the bad guy... I am not changing my stance. Now that she is willing to work with me, I don't need to be there.
