Weird feelings these days...

Aug 09, 2008 17:25

I am in a strange place emotionally these days. I am hyperfocused on my daughter's career...she is about to break big in Hollywood, and the focus on her has left my needs in the backseat. I was accused of not tending to my own needs, by a woman who wants more than I can give in the on/off relationship I have with her. This woman is very wealthy and is accustumed to getting what she wants...living off daddy's money. I do well financially, so her wealth and lifestyle, while alluring, is not enough to compromise my daughter's time as I feel I cannot be bought. But, is being hyperfocused on my daughter healthy? Is forgoing dates, sex etc healthy for the sake of one's daughter? I admit, I never feel unfullfilled by spending this time with my daughter---she is a wonderful person and I enjoy her company immensely. This rich gf though is using every trick imaginable to spend more time with her...I have told her flat out that my daughter is number one, will always be number one blahblah...OK. So does anyone have any advice for me?
