Boundaries

Today, I took my new girl out on a date after work. Ten minutes later, my ex-wife, her new boyfriend and my daughter showed up at the same restaurant and decided a double date would be fun. My ex lives an hour away. FML

Today, I got to wash my ex-wife's dishes at her apartment while her new boyfriend played with my daughter in the living room. FML

Today, after finally getting a date with the girl I like, she invited her new boyfriend along as well. I ended up paying for their first date. FML

Today, I was eating lunch on my first date with a really pretty girl, when my ex shows up at the same restaurant and starts telling her how bad of a boyfriend I was. My date left. FML

Today, I was having an after work-out dinner with my ex-girlfriend and we were having a great time, catching up, eating good food, all the good things. Then when I got home, I realized I just talked to my ex-girlfriend for an hour and a half about how much better her new boyfriend is than me. FML

Child's play

By knew that kid looked familiar - 06/10/2021 17:00

Today, I took my kids to the park. I saw my daughter playing with a kid who looked familiar. Turns out he was my ex’s son, whom I haven’t seen in years. I thought it was cute they played so well together, until my ex’s new girlfriend came over, screaming that I was trying to use my kid to get to her man. FML

Today, the girl I've had a crush on for a year finally said she'd go out with me. On the way over to pick her up, she called me and said she couldn't go because she was going out to dinner with her ex-boyfriend to talk things over. She asked if she could use the reservations I had made. FML

Today, my ex, who I still live with, invited he’s best friend (a drama starter) and his new love interest over for dinner while I was at work. Now I’m outside, waiting for them both to leave. FML

Devious

Today, I was invited out to a date by my ex-boyfriend. He seemed really excited to reconnect and kept holding my hand and complimenting how I looked. Out of nowhere a girl runs up to him screaming. It was his current girlfriend, he was using me to make her jealous. FML

1. Did you post on social media where you were going? 2. Is it a favorite hangout? This does NOT sound coincidental.

Tracking his location wouldn't have allowed her to show up that quickly if she's an hour away.

Seems pretty obvious to me: the ex has a mole at the restaurant who tipped her off and she and the boyfriend and daughter jumped in a car and drove around 360 mph to get there.

That must be the perfect storm of awkwardness for the daughter! She gets to hang out with the people both her parents are banging. I can hardly imagine anything worse!

When my kids were still teenagers they wouldn’t talk to me about where they were going or what they were doing. I was still responsible for them and loved them. Then a friend of mine let me know about a tracker. It has a really strong magnet on it. And you can put it on the underside of a car. And then you just need to look at your Cell Phone to know where they are. Check your car for a tracker! Otherwise it may happen again!
