Me: no, just allergies
J: You sure lol. i thought i would let you know that i am getting married in december
Me: ok…congratulations
J: Sorry didn’t know how to tell you or what your reaction would be
Me: I don’t know how it makes me feel.
J: Ok did you ever get a chance to do anything with my resume
Me: no still working on it. trying make it sound good
J: Lol ok good. Thanks for everything
Me: Np
J: I want to start keeping the baby for the summer
Me: I’m not going the whole summer without her
J: Well thats real fair to me
Me:You taking the summer off to be with her
J: YOU going to take the summer off to be with her???
Me: i could probably do 2 weeks, but no way to 3 months
J: Thats not fair i deserve better i deserve more time
J: So your with her every min. of day right now?
Me: No i have to go to school, but she is taken care of
J:Ypu are just being mean. I cant believe your denying me time with her people told me you would and i defended you every time
Me: I’m not denying you. I let you have her anytime you want. You are being hateful.
J: I am not trying to. I am just trying to be a father
J: no your denying me right now i am not being hateful i just want time with her like i deserve. Your being hateful by denying me. Its just not fair
Me: I always let you have her, even when its not your weekend.
J: And that would be bull shit i am not asking for too much just equal time its not even equal just more than i get now
Me: We agreed to every other weekend. I let you have her on most of my weekends too. I am fair. I never tell you no.
J:Ok so thats how its gonna be. Cuz thats what we agreed on thats fine. And your not being fair
J: So you think i am asking for to much?
Me: I don’t want to fight. Don’t yell and cuss at me.
J: I am not yelling i just want what i want and i always cuss dont mean anything by it. you are not being reasonable your only thinking of mandy
Me: Ok
J: Wm forget she is mine too. ThaTs why you always say how MY child. I dont do that to you. I want her for the summer!!!!
J: Ok What?
Me: Ok, you didn’t mean a thing cussing at me
J: Sorry babe but it looks like we are. Because you are not being fair
J: FW: From: (my #) Msg: I promise i will never keep her away from you
J: You sure not thinking of me
Me: Why would I think of you?
J: Because i am her FATHER. what if i told you that you can only have her two weeks at the most come on mandy you would flip
J: Believe it or not she needs me as much as she needs you
J: FW: From: (my #) Msg: I promise i will never keep her away from you
J: Dont worry about it
And while I was in class I got one from him today asking for two weeks, a week at home, and then two more weeks. I maybe more accepting of that arrangement if I have to, but I don’t want to. I think I am more than fair when I let him have her every weekend. That is more than we agreed to in the beginning.
I don’t believe that there is anything bad in my diary, but I felt safer closing it down to outsiders. Maybe after this is all done I can go back to being me. I don’t want to sensor myself. Its my fucking diary after all.
Y’all take care,
Mandy

RYN: “what made you a conservative piece of shit?” Maybe from a few of my interests (Anti Obama – McCain/Palin for President – Anti Democrat)…

Sheesh, he wants to tell you he’s getting married and now all of the sudden he wants her for the summer… You think maybe its becuase of whomever he’s marrying?

Sounds like to me he was trying to start a fight with you.. first with the whole “Im getting married” thing and you not going ape shit and then demanding 3 months with the baby… knowing you would never agree to that. What an ass. Hope it works out. *hugs*

You shouldn’t have to feel you have to be anything less than yourself.

Holy hell! I’d never agree to letting Jerkface have Lexi for the whole summer. That is crazy. It seems that he is being unreasonable by not trying to compromise with you on that.

I dont have children so i dont know all the emotions involved, but i see nothing wrong with your decision. If you two have a previous agreement then he should stick with it. And i also agree with mommantacoma it sounds like he may just be trying to make himself look more ‘caring and responsible’ for this hick he is marrying? Well like i said if you ever need to talk I am here hugs
