Seems like you're leaving some stuff out if she's so vehemently opposed to having you being closer and a part of the sons life.

I made a lot of mistakes but I never abused her or cheated on her.

I’ll admit I’m not the smartest guy. After he was born we had to do a lot of paperwork to transition both of them from California to Dubai and I screwed up on some of the documents. When we were rotating shifts on who was watching him, I failed to set my alarm a couple times and ended up sleeping for 7-8 hours which she was not happy about. There was a week where I couldn’t do anything right, from wrapping his diaper tight enough to where it wouldn’t leak to not getting all the groceries. A big one was I lied about my hours at work. I left at 1 to go to work at 2 only to find out I was scheduled until 5( honest mistake) and instead of telling her the truth and doing something positive like go get groceries, I went to my apartment and slept until work at 5.

I am a recovering addict and after leaving them both in Dubai and coming back home I relapsed but have recovered. I’m sure that’s a reason she doesn’t want me around.
