WHY ARE MEN LIKE THIS. ('Not all men' me at your peril) My last 'straight' relationship before coming out as a lezza was 2004-2011. 2005 we bought a house together in Taffs Well (Wales), by which I mean I agreed to pay half the mortgage but was made to sign a document stating I would have no financial claim to the property should we separate. His brother was a finance dude and they both convinced me this was fine and normal 2007 We started trying for a baby, which was his idea. 2010 our daughter was born following IVF. 2012 we separated and I moved back home to Kent with our daughter. I left him because of financial and emotional abuse. Since we split, I have been solely responsible for our daughter which I do not regret because quite frankly she is an angel and my soul mate. He moved to Scotland and sees her once a year when he comes to stay for 2 or 3 days over Christmas. He pays £350 a month maintenance and calls her every Sunday. Father of the year material right 🙄 For 15 years I believed we at the very least had a mutual respect, if not a friendship. How dumb was I. I recently found out he has been telling his family and work colleagues that I am raising my daughter to be gay. That we live in squalor, and that I am a fat lazy alcoholic waiting for him to save us and take me back. I called him out on it last week and instead of responding, he has logged into my netflix and Disney + (I forgot he had the log ins) and watched 5 seconds of about 30 films/shows to mess up my 'continue watching' and suggested lists. How fucking petty???? I can imagine his nasty smug little face laughing to himself as he did it. I won't ever get an apology or explanation for the things he has said about me and honestly I don't give a shit about that. But he has a really immature dark side and I need to tell my daughter about this. How?????
