Hi everyone,

my partner of 20 yrs recently left me and our children for another women, what i'm finding really hard is that he is putting her needs before his childrens an example is that my kids wanted to see their father on a tuesday night but he told them he couldnt because he was seeing his new girlfriend that he met 3 months ago that night they were really upset because to them it looked like she was more important to him, He has been a great dad in the past i just dont understand this attitude , why has his priorties changed . any insight would be helpful. thanks x

eyeswideopen agony auntThe LAW says he has to pay child support, he isn't doing it because he's such a nice guy. Tell the idiot to clean out his own damn car and fork over the money or you'll take him to court.

thanks for the replies.

things seem to be getting worse , he is trying to control me by using the support money, he wont give me any child support unless i do certain things for him, eg: wants receipts for money ( ok fair enough) but now he also wants me to clean out his caravan. whats it going to be next.

All i want is him to support and love his kids and leave me alone is that really to much to ask.

eyeswideopen agony auntSelfish people only think of themselves, and right now he's being very selfish. Try not to bad mouth him to his kids, you can only hope he will come around. I hope you are not in too much pain and can be strong while all this gets sorted out. Keep us posted

why is he putting his new lover first - well, because that is what they do when they leave their wives, they also leave their kids.

sad but oh, so true.
