My soon to be ex husband just had a baby with my maid of honor/old best friend. We have been apart for 3 years. Off and on the first half of that. I have gotten to the point where I am ok with them being together. Getting better at accepting they baby. But the other day she went and posted this status on facebook.

how did i get so lucky to be blessed with an amazingly loving, helpful, and understanding fiance. He makes me dinner, helps me clean, works a job he hates to support me, takes care of our daughter even when hes been at work and is tired, and holds me while i cry. If thats not enough I also have the most beautiful and amazingly precious daughter in the world. What else could a girl want. I love them both so much!!!

So what I am wanting to know, is where was this guy when I was with him? He never cooked, cleaned or helped me with the children. It makes me feel as though, we were just a practice family for the real thing. It feels as though this part of his life is over and they are his life now. He calls his children maybe once a month. So what am I supposed to think? I don't know what I am feeling anymore. But thanks to all who read this.

 Unfortunately we, as humans, need to understand that sometimes when someone is not happy they don't do certain things... then when they ARE happy, and doing things we wanted them to, we start feeling like WE SUCKED.  It's not you that's the problem honey... it was who you both were TOGETHER.  Ignoring the family he started with you is wrong.. .but you should ALWAYS be happy that THEY are HAPPY.  One day you will be there too, but if you hold too much contempt for what they have, you may not find it.  Him starting a family with someone else, doesn't mean he doesn't WANT his family... he may just be having trouble getting used to everything right now... give it time, all will work out.

I think that's a normal reaction to read that and be upset.  Breathe, mama.  And unfriend them on FB, it's not worth the stress.

I would be upset too. We all want to feel like we were special.  However, it sounds like the girl is trying to over compensate by the way she worded everything.  Most people don't go out of there way to brag like that unless they are trying to impress someone.  Maybe she has people telling her that he is not up to part and so she may have over exagerated.

Oct. 30, 2010 at 12:18 PM Get off of her fb profile! You are only going to be hurt by what she posts. Keep your distance, and move on. If she is still your 'friend' on fb remove her, and find a new bff.
