Just introduce yourself as "I'm the guy tired of her shite." Should go well.

Ask him if she's talked about her fecal fantasies yet.

"No? Really?! Oh god, her fantasies make '2 girls, 1 cup' look like Barney."

I pray you don't either. We've got 2 (7yo girl and 9yo boy who's autistic). It's an effing nightmare!

Daughter goes to a private in the diocese (BR) and the ex moved to Ascension specifically to put my son in a public. She thought she could do that without my agreement and tried to put my daughter there too without my consent. I had to go to court to pump the brakes on that move.

Met with my attorney Monday to figure out the logistics of how this is going to work since I live in BR.

You don't see this much on here when asked for pics, but I'll go ahead and give y'all one.....

I'm sorry you and your kids have to deal with that. It sounds like you're a great Dad,and they're lucky to have you.

I'll second this! I'm completely fine with our divorce, but hate it for my kids. My daughter constantly tells me how much she misses us living together.

Thank you. I have my moments when I wonder if I am or not, but then others who know how hard I try and see how well the kids are doing reinforce me with their positivity.

If you didn't have something about you meeting them before they met the kids in the decree you're an idiot or had a shitty lawyer.

You’ll probably get some real a-hole replies, but I certainly feel for you. My parents got divorced when I was a teenager, and even for me it was awkward when they started bringing their new SO around us.

Their split was pretty nasty, so I imagine they found it entertaining and revenge worthy.

I didn't want to be control freak and dictate my ex's life after me.

Or have her dictate mine.

Divorced two years ago. Caught her cheating. She’s now married to the guy she cheated with and our daughter is getting married in December. Have only been around him once and we never spoke.

Not gonna lie, shite is gonna be awkward as hell.

I had a hard time the first time I had to do this. The second one was no big deal. They're married now.

Walk up shake his hand, lean in and quietly whisper “there’s nothing you can do to her, no hole you can explore that I haven’t already worn out”.

That established dominance right away.

I would think an ex would communicate with you before exposing your kids to a new dude though.

Depends on how you want to treat it.

If you think she's a giant piece of shite that you never should've married, take the baws advice to thank him for taking on that nightmare.

If you didn't want to divorce her but had your hand forced, just play it cool...."she's a hard one to please, good luck".

Regardless, I think it's important to have a lil' sidebar to discuss how important your children are to you and that you hope that he understands how important it is that he be a good man and a good example.

My ex waited until they had dated for a while before introducing me. I was aware of them dating but the actual meet and greet happened later in the relationship. He was/is a stand up dude. He was divorced also so that helped.
