I feel like im drowning

My mother wants me to move away but i co parent with my sons father . We were doing soooo well tbh and one day he picked up my to bring him to school and he was otp and i heard him murmur “oh , shes catch on . Shell catch on ! So in my mind i thought he was talking to a gf . So when he left i told him hey if you are talking to someone dont use that to be nasty to me moving forward and this was his response. I felt no respect in that text and my reason fr not moving is to coparent with him but everyone keeps telloing me he isnt ahit and hes not even worth staying behind for because in essence once my mom leaves my support system is gone . On another hand sometimes i feel like a need a fresh start. Smh i feel myself slipping into a depression. Im feeling resentment, regretful . He apologized later on fr being rude and disrespectful and it was genuine but idk. He also mentioned he doesnt want to come to my house anymore. Should i honor his wishes and do meetups moving forward?

I think you should close that chapter and unblur the lines. Sounds like you’re still messing with him and keeping the door cracked open a bit and it’s causing you to be in your feelings about his actions.

@Akuba he was in my home getting lo ready not for a few minutes but for about half an hour otp whispering so i checked him cause i thought it was disrespectful. I get what you’re saying but why lash out like that??

His response also triggered me

My mom also keeps badgering me to move on bt how if shes always down my neck and making me feel like shit???

@Akuba were not messing around tho . Were around each other probably more than we should be bt to be completely honest i wanted that cause my son is still so young . Idk

It’s natural to want that. I want the same. To answer your question, he’s your ex for a reason is what you have to remind yourself when he’s on one. But things like guilt and immaturity come to mind. To deny something and then go back and apologize for it is wild. But on the other side, you may have been doing too much to inquire about his whispering and carrying on. If y’all aren’t dealing with each other, what does it matter? I’m sure you just want him to show up as his best self, but he only owes you respect atp. Not “normal behavior.”

Yeah i gt you ion know it just put a tense vibe in the house bt him saying oh hes nt coning over no more i feel like is his way of punishing me cause he knows that i enjoy seeing him around our son. Bt your right sometimes i just feel suffocated by this situation and your also right i was doing too much I threatened to move away because he was exhibiting toxic behavior bt in retrospect he can be on the phone . His blowback definitely triggered me as well . Sorry fr the rant lol!

i’m in the same exact boat of you. we coparent and my mom is my only support system although he loved his son very much and is a great father. my mom got a house in florida and i’m ready to go!! i’m leaving his ass behind. he didn’t want a family with us, idk why i should stay behind for him. they can still visit and make the effort to be there. no matter WHAT

@Gabriela damn are you leaving for real?

@Gabriela lol you are done bt i know your right he doesn’t want to be a family with us either well nt all the time atleast lol

@Gabriela if i can be frank i feel like theres still feelings there on both ends bt hes not going to man up hed rather find someone else to manipulate and start over lol… i want the feelings to stop bt still be able to coparent effectively.

@Gabriela another thing i would go bt i feel like he’s expressed feelings of depression and i dont want fr this to tip him over the edge .

omg it sounds just like my situation!!!! yes, i want to leave ASAP!

@Gabriela I'm so happy you're going to be free from that mess.

Nah sis. That sounds manipulative. That’s not your problem to solve.
