[qb] This man is such a jerk! He leaves me last month for my best friend after having an affair with her for 2 years. Now he wants to act like I am his buddy and nothing happened! He was saying that he would watch my disabled son four nights a week so I can work but then backed out and is now only watching him 1 night a week (thank God I have nurses). Tonight was the one night this week he had to watch him and he calls me at work to see if I can leave early beacuse his girlfriend's grandmother was in a coma and wasn't expected to last much longer. I told him that she knows how to drive, and she should drive herself. She said she wasn't sure she could drive home. There was no way I was leaving early for her! So I said no. When I got home I confronted him about trying to back out on the one night he spends with his son (he sees him for a few hours on Sunday too but has already backed out on 1 visit and we have only been seperated for 5 week). He got pissed at me. He spends 6 nights a week with this girl, that's why he cut back on watching my son. Is it too much to ask that he live up to his responsibility?! I told him that his son should be the most important thing in his life. He always was when we were together. My son is 2 1/2 and knows Daddy doesn't live here anymore but I don't think he fully comprehends. He knows something is up though. He has been very clingy with me lately and he's never like that. I just don't want this man to break my son's heart and I see it coming. He wants everyone to think he is "Super Dad" and puts on a great show and says all the right things to people, but his actions speak louder than words. I know I should just stop confronting him and let these things go, but it tears me up that he is pushing my son aside for this woman.

Thanks for listening everyone. [/qb]
