Having recently gone thru a very lengthy court process for access to my six year old son ( with a very satisfying contact order as a result), I know that I should make some attempt to try and establish some form of co-operative relationship with my ex for the sake of my son, but the court battle has been so drawn out and vicious that I feel nothing for her other than complete hatred, in fact I want nothing to do with her ever again and cannot even envisage speaking to her. Anyone been in a similar situation?
I understand where your coming from.
I go from indifference to feeling sorry to being really annoyed with her.
I think that it is difficult to build rpport and a coopertive relationship following court proceedings however it remains my preffered outcome despite that it will pain me.
Regards,
Dave
I got custody of our daughters years ago, and never wanted to speak to my ex. Fortunately for me, contact was through a contact centre, so all communication was through them, and these days the only reason I have her number in my phone is so that my phone can recognise the number to block it - I haven't spoken to her for years in any shape or form - the only issue will probably arise if and when my son marries as he still feels some responsibility to her.
