My girlfriend is dating this guy that has children-who he keeps separate from his relationship to a great degree. They have only been dealing for about a year so I suppose that is understandable, but I am not a parent so…
Anyway, he has three children 2 boys which are 19 & 17 and a daughter who is 13. The daughter is very possessive of her father she is young and a daddy’s girl. My friend understands this as she has a very tight relationship with her father and she does not push and is not inappropriate in front of daughter which is very rare. Well, it has been decided that the dad is going to get custody of his daughter soon and about 2-3 weeks ago my friend was spending the weekend with him, but he had to rush to pick up his daughter because of an emergency. He was concerned about how the daughter would feel about my friend being there when he and his daughter arrived so he asked my friend to meet him outside somewhere and they would pick her up- um yeah. erplexed
The night before this though they were supposed to go out, and he went to his daughter to take her shopping. He was supposed to be back to go out, but when he came back they went nowhere (friend was at his place) he claimed that she was sleeping when he got in and did not want to wake her. He said it looked like she needed the rest
Anyway, she went to the mall to shop and they (he and his daughter) met her at the mall. Where they all spent part of the day, then went had lunch…then went back to his place to chill. My friend was a little disturbed, but she just went along because…I suppose relationship sake??
Fast forward to this Friday, they had an argument about her phone being off. He was upset that she had not returned his call until late in the day, but she had an emergency and a dead phone so…anyway, he would not pick up his phone when she finally called him back. She kept calling and eventually he answered expressing his anger. Anyway, she got upset because she really needed to speak to him about her day and the emergency which caused her to get back to him late. She says he was distant and she was close to crying (she is very emotional), but he still was angry about not reaching her.
She was still upset, but called him Saturday and he told her that his female co-worker took his daughter to get her hair done….she was upset, but did not express it because she said she felt silly, but was still upset.
I hate telling friends to drop dudes unless they are really arseholes…but he is a runner up in my opinion.
What are your thoughts?
