OT ---- But something that I've noticed...

[stealth2]

Interestingly enough, I've had trouble getting info out of the dr my ex took the kids to this summer (and there are very good reasons why I need the info) - and I'm the CP.

Stealth we know your ex is a little off. Who knows what story he told the Dr.

 

[stealth2]

LOL true. I'd like to trade ex's with someone - any takers?

 

[kidoday]

Oh no, good Lord no. Mine and I get along fine.

You know.. I got my e-mail notice for this and I thought about it... but.. I've decided... um.. NO!

 

[stealth2]

Dayum..... But he might get along better with someone else!

 

[kidoday]

Still no, I am not taking any chances.

 

[stealth2]

hehehe I don't blame you!

Sorry I know I got into this one late but I just had to respond! If we are giving away ex's I want to put mine on the list! Redeeming factors? None at the moment, but 3 1/2 years ago he was great! We had keys to each others houses, he paid me CS even though we were only separated, we split school fees, supplies, pictures right down the middle, showed up together for school functions, sporting events...we got along so well people didn't even know we weren't together! Then came the pyscho wench! From that moment on...it took 3 years for me to receive CS (a whop'n $27 a week with NO back support!), he doesn't offer a dime for ANYTHING even after he's been given receipts and has nothing to do with his son's education. Oh and the doctors thing? He took my son to a different doctor and lied to them about my son already seeing someone for his A.D.D. medication and when that office tried to tell me I had no right to know what was going on, I threw down the trump card that I was the CP, but in the end I had to find a new doctor for my son because both offices had been prescribing a controlled substance which is against the law! I don't give the school ANY information regarding him because he will try to cause trouble for my son (take him without my permission, lie about everything, try to change my son's schedule, lie about anything...you get the point.) I used to make him copies of EVERYTHING until he lied and told everybody I didn't, so now if he want's to know what's going on HE has to call the school and let them know he needs copies.

And the picture thing? We have 3 to buy for!! And for what? I know I'm old but when we got pictures we wrote stuff on the back and handed them out to EVERYBODY! Now a days you get a bazillion pictures that just sit in the envelope in the file cabinet because it's not "cool" to hand them out!!!! For a 13 year old boy its a fate worse than death! You can't give them to the girls because they will think you like them and you can't give them to the boys because they will think you're gay!!! How I long for the good OLD days!! LOL

There is a solution to this, here they make a class picture, it isn't everyone together it is each child's individual picture put on one sheet. We take that sheet, scan in our child's picture on the comp. and make our own. Copyright infringement or anything, I don't know and don't care. I think those pic prices are rip offs!

Interesting posts... I'd make one too about something my ex did/does that really pisses me off, but since him and his wife read this site and I haven't discussed it with them yet, I think I'd better refrain.

LOL...I actually LIKE my ex and we get along really well (its like having another brother) and I also get along well with his long time girlfriend. Their son calls me Auntie. HOWEVER...my ex does have one very big problem that it took me years to deal with. He LIES...about everything. Its not the kind of lying that someone does to cause trouble for someone else, in fact he would NEVER do that. Its lying about himself. What's more, he lies in situations where the truth would actually do him more good than the lie. Most of the time its really pretty harmless stuff but occasionally its serious. He doesn't do it with me much anymore because I know when he is lying and he knows that I know it. However I am not sure his girlfriend has any real clue.

The best example I can give is the following: For a myriad of reasons we didn't actually divorce until 8 years after we officially separated. When my marital status came up in a conversation I always told the truth...that I had been separated for X number of years, but we hadn't divorced yet for business/religious reasons (we owned operated a business together and weren't prepared to deal with the complications of dividing it and his family is devout catholic and he was scared ****less to even tell them that we were separated....luckily they lived in another country..LOL)

He on the other hand always told people he was divorced...and invariably someone important for one reason or another would find out that he lied about it...and it would complicate his life enormously. I kept telling him to just tell the truth...that it was no big deal, but for some reason he just wouldn't do it.

Then I suggest you personally PM or e-mail everyone and tell them the issue. It's like dangling a sucker in front of a kid but telling them they can't have it. LOL

Oh I second that motion! Personally I think my ex is the biggest a-hole on the planet and would love to hear about his competition!!! LOL And I don't have to worry about my ex finding this site...first he'd have to figure out how to use the computer and then he would be required to read something and he would have a problem with all the big words!!!

OK, I sent everyone a private message through here.

Did y'all get it?
