I Hate My Ex Husband

My X Husband Continues To Call..

By: kdharvest
Written on February 5th, 2013
My children are now 19 & 20, my ex husband gets upset when I don't call to let him know everything that is going on with them. I feel like they are old enough to call and update him on what is going on in their lives. And if he needs to find out something about them he can very well call them. He does not need to call me.

The other thing is, I feel he needs to mind his business about what is going on in my household, and the decisions I make in regards to the children. He's the one who decided to mess up not me.

Am I wrong for this?

    Agreed. You are absolutely correct. I am divorced as well, and I decided long ago to have a private life from my ex. I don't even like for him to come into my house when he picks up the children (although I do let him). I have tried very hard to maintain my privacy. My oldest son is almost 19, and as you mentioned, he is old enough to tell his dad what is going on with him. It is not my job anymore. Your ex husband should be working on his own relationship with his kids and leave you alone.

    No, you are not wrong at all. Have you told him how you felt about him contacting you? If you're truly tired of him calling, then change your number and be done with it. I suspect he's trying to secretly win you back by asking about the kids.

      Yes I have told him to stop contacting me, and texting me unless it is an emergency regarding the children and they are unable to call me.

      The only problem is that me & my new husband use our cellphones for business, so of course it would cause problems for our clients.

      --So what I we did last night is that when he called the second time, after I didn't answer or respond the first time. My husband decided to answer my phone, and called out to me "...Babe, you got a phone call!" when I got on the phone he sounded very flustered, so I'm hoping this will deter him from ever calling again.
