well its not a fathers day card but just a card...i guess i just wanted him to know i will be thinking of him.

every year for the past few years we've spent fathers day with them and have a bbq here at home..

obviously this year it wont be happening and i wonder what my ex will be thinking...he will think about it wont he ?

not sure why i want him to but then again maybe i think he will feel guilty again...not just for ruining my life but also his parents lives...they never had a daughter and our relationship was such a good one...

little things like this are going to crop up arnt they and i have to deal with them....its hard though, constant reminders of our life together and whats happened.

all this gets tiring after a while....whens it going to end...

Morning Daisy

nothing wrong in sending your ex father in law a card , i think it's great you still get on with them.Do they treat you any different now Daisy? I get on with his parents we had the period where we never spoke to each other through hurt and no doudt they were running me down to people and yes i was doing the same.Even though technicly they now have a new daughter in law i can feel pretty smug knowing that they don't like her and she don't like them must really get stuck in her throat that her mother in law don't want to know her but has time for her ex daughter in law :laugh:

My children have sent his father and his 2 grandfathers fathers day cards though i don't anymore.But i do send birthday and christmas cards from me.

when you stop thinking of all the things you used to do together and so forth thats when you have let go, it did take me ages to get to that point but you do get there.

Hi Daisy

I think you've doen the right thing. If you can be the decent person in all this then a) good for you and b) it all adds karma ponts :)

All the firsts will be tricky, anniversaries, fathers day, etc, but there are new things waiting for us somewhere down the road
