Title: Splitting and being friendly Post by: JaxDK on August 18, 2017, 12:37:37 PM Is it possible to be split and the same person acting friendly towards you at the same time?. When I pick up my son from my ex she seems helpful and friendly. I also know she harbors deep resentment which sometimes manifest itself with her acting cold and indifferent.
Today I feel like I got both treatments at the same time which I found odd. She was very helpful offering to help get a new auto chair, even asking if I wanted a banana to give him to eat tonight at he same time with her being cold, distant and in a bad mood, which I could tell on her facial expression. She looked pissed. I know she hates my guts for leaving the way I did. Yet she sometimes tries to get me to converse with her as I'm about to leave Title: Re: Splitting and being friendly Post by: once removed on August 18, 2017, 12:49:33 PM it would seem to be this is less about splitting, and more about trying to be a constructive co-parent and have a friendly relationship, in spite of her resentments. while it can be difficult, many exes that share children get there.

Thanks that makes me feel better. I always worry about the dreaded split. I can live with resentment. Thankfully she is a very responsible mom, something she's always taken very seriously. She has always been a good co-parent to her ex husband even though he cares little for his own kids. I'll take constructive co-parent and run with that |
