How to accept lack of respect from coparent?
Hi,
Me and my ex are 3 years into coparenting and the relationship has its ups and downs - unfortunately more downs at present and the relationship has completely broken down.
There is no respect from my ex.
I am the primary carer - 65-35, yet my ex expects me to cover the additional costs, school dinners, extracurricular activities. In return, she will contribute towards 50% of schools trips.
She constantly makes comments such as “she’s your daughter”, will make last minute changes to her planned time.
It’s clear she doesn’t want involvement, my life woild be easier if she had no involvement, she’s just unwilling to admit that.
She doesn’t have our child’s best interests at heart on any decision she makes.
Should I be surprised that I don’t get a thanks in return?
No, but it doesn’t stop me getting wound up.
I want to be over it.
