I am a 42 yr old woman going through a divorce after 25 yrs of marriage almost 26 at first I was having a hard time with it ..He has moved on and now has a girlfriend who is very nice she is 6 yrs older then me and 3 yrs older then him .I am not jealous of her and we are friends as well as myself and ex are good friends.. here is where it gets weird he is always nice to me when she isnt around gives me a hug when he leaves and does it most the time when she is here, But lots of times when he is around her he wants to snap at me over little things or treat me like crap .I always let him know when i feel he is doing this and he gets smart with me like oh yeah its me isnt it Im so mean .Never does that when she isnt around .I love him to bits and would never want to be his enemy but sometimes he makes it hard to continue at times .we have a 11 yr old we adopted at birth so it is real important to me that she has a life as normal as possible and she doesnt hear or see anything harsh said or acted out .I really just want a normal Life Yeah I am having a bit of a rough time with the whole thing because i didnt want the divorce but I never treat him or his g/f badly.. Please give me some helpful tips Im just lost trying to figure it out cant stand the feeling of anger or hurt ......Does he really want to remain Friends or is he playing games ....
