So, Dani.........

Missy!! Thanks for asking!!

I wore a super, CUTE outfit! I curled my hair, put on make-up and just made sure I was looking mighty good.

A friend went with me. :) DH had to work.

They all got there and sat on the opposite side of the court (The opposing team's side). Do you believe it? They sat on the other side to make sure they were far away from me. How obvious!

His younger brother and mom were there. His younger brother ran up to me and gave me a big hug. I haven't seen him in years! I could tell ex and his wife felt uncomfortable.

During half time, my friend told me I should walk over there and give my ex my son's sweatpants. He was going to take my son with him after the game so he needed them. I walked over and his mom said hi to me and handed me a check to donate to my marathon charity. :)

I know the wife was wiggling in her seat, so uncomfortable wishing I wasn't there. I'm SO glad I went. :) I'm glad I was there to cheer on my little boy. When I told him I might not come, he seemed sad. He was happy when I said I would come. I won't let ex-husband bully me into not going to any of my son's games. I can't believe I almost didn't go because he told me not to.

Oh, and I forgot to mention earlier, they just had a baby and she was flaunting the baby on her lap at me. His wife kept making sure the baby was facing me the entire time. Trying to show him off. If that is possible. The baby is cute, and I'm happy for my son that he has a little half brother now. She didn't bother me.

I think she just can't stand that she was sneaking around with him for a couple of years while we were still married . She can't get past the fact that I'm here and I exist. Oh, well for her. Ex can't stand that he realizes what a big mistake he made.

They don't look happy at all.


Background story in case someone doesn't know what I'm talking about. :p http://69.0.137.118/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=4&topic_id=232973&mesg_id=232973&page=
 
Wow Dani! You did ALL the right things. It's so clear how you love your son and what a GREAT mom you are. Even though you don't like her you are putting your son first even the comment about having a little half brother.

I'm a single Mom. Never remarried. I'm starting to get close to a guy at work and we both have kids so know how that can be. He just emailed me and it looks like we have our first dinner Tuesday or Thursday this week :) Sorry to go on about me - but it just happened!

You handeled this perfectly :)
 
Dani..you are a class act indeed!! You know what they always say...if they cheat with you they'll cheat on you. I'm sure his new wife is insecure and probably has every reason to be. How can she face you without squirming after knowing that she cheated with your husband. So glad you felt good about yourself at the game!! Your son and new husband are lucky to have you!

I went through a similar thing with my ex and his girlfriend, although, there are no children involved. She acted as if she hated me and I always found that amazing. But there was regret on my ex-husband's part that I had moved on from the pain of his cheating and I became very, very happy. She always knew that he still loved me and I think there may be some of that going on in your situation as well.

Keep being the wonderful, happy person you are!!! You're the best and WE know it!!!:)
 
Thanks guys! My DH wishes he could have gone to the game too. Before he left for work he told me to wear something really sexy. :)

He wanted to hear all about it afterwards. He's so happy that what ex lost, he gained. :)

Good luck with the new guy Robyn. Keep us posted okay?

Thank you too Lisa. It sounds like we have very similar stories.
 
Good for you, Dani! You keep on going to those gamss and don't let him or her affect you at all!

As for her, she is probably annoyed that the grass isn't as green as thought it was ;)
 
Good deal, Dani. You know when I read the bit where you said they had been together while you were still married, and that they didn't look happy, all I could think of is the old saying about cheaters: If they'll do it WITH you, they'll do it TO you. So maybe she has her own concerns about that....

I can't imagine that it is possible to be happy when you start a relationship the way that they did.

I am so happy that you went to cheer on your son! He must have been so happy to have you there. Did they win? Does he play basketball or football, I am not sure which one is in season right now for their age. I am happy that you had a good time! :7

Sounds like his family is pretty loving and understanding of your divorce from him if they are still hugging and donating money for your cause. That is really incredible that they aren't petty, some families are like that no matter whose fault it is. Sounds like your son has a good family! :D

Thats a good story! Good for you!:) She may have been trying to flaunt the new baby that she had, but I am sure she had to be envious of how you looked! Im so glad you went!

Missy,

My little guy is in basketball right now. His other favorite is baseball and he plays that in the Spring. :)

He was so happy I was there and that's all that really matters.

Thank you again! :)
 
Great Dani! I'm glad you made Nick happy! Enjoy his special times...you are a good Mom!

Dani, I'm glad you went to the game.:) It's nice how your ex's brother gave you a hug and how his mom donated money to your charity marathon. That means they acknowledge you and are aware that they do still have a connection with you through your son. You can see from this scenario who really has a problem, and that's not you. I bet you looked good and flaunted that fabulous hair.;-)
