[QUOTE="Shari, post: 131122, member: 1848"] Wow, you have your plate full. While I understand your husband's jealousy, I also understand that you and Ex have a child together and what's taking place right now - your son's parents getting along and working together - is, in my humble opinion, what should be happening in every child's life, whether the parents are married or not. What better lesson to teach by example - cooperation with those that aren't exactly high on your list to be buddies with? Maybe you could point out to husband that by borrowing ex's car you wouldn't have to be WITH ex so much...does ex pay support? Maybe a small amount could be deducted for "car rental" so husband sees it more as something for your son and less as a buddy-buddy kinda thing with the ex. And like Beth said, take a step back and take a good honest look at your relationship with husband. Is he like ex was? Make sure its a healthy relationship before you dive head-first into bending to save it. Some of the things you said in your answers aren't so healthy. (ie not compromising, not going to any appts, including family therapy, not tending to your daughter while you were away...) I realize that we all have traits, if taken out of context, that could be listed and make us look like ogres. Usually those are offset by positives, so, not knowing your husband, I can't say, but you did list some kickers there... Above all, hugs. [/QUOTE]
