[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 558882, member: 1550"] Oh, Step, thank you...lol. You're 100% right. He says "I can't" to everything so he won't. He projects too and already has his ex getting physical custody of Grandson almost all the time. He is often impossible to rationalize with and can be abusive over t he phone. I'm not going to make his divorce my entire life. Facts are (and I am not one to tell HIM "I told you so"), I expressed my worry about her before they married and during his marriage when she almost left him before. I told him she would do it again. I suggested it would be a good idea not to move to Missouri, so far from everyone he knows, (and he is socially phobic), but he got a good job offer with lots of $$$ and he cares more about $$$ than anything and he left. My ex had to pay for the move, by the way. He spent a fortune helping our son move. After he moved, he didn't want ex's family visiting them much so he wouldn't let us visit him much either. Because of that, I never got to know my grandson. And when my son was blissfully unaware that his marriage wasn't good, he barely called me. For most of the last fifteen years my family closeness has been me, my husband, Julie (pastrychef), Sonic and Jumper. His siblings are NOT crazy about him. Now he wants me to be the one and only person giving him advice, helping him, talking ex into lending him money, etc. and I can't do it all. He needs to go to a divorce support group and make friends in Missouri. He doesn't want to go because they are religious groups, but who cares? Support is support. He's agnostic...but not everyone who joins these groups is super religious...I am going to be sixty years old next year. I have twenty years to lay back and enjoy myself. I don't want to be "everything" to a 34 year old man. [/QUOTE]
