Hello Amy, That sounds fine to me. You may want to ask them to pass the number on as they may not realise you need them too. It's very sad that your ex isn't involved in your daughter's life. She obviously has fond memories of him, and you're doing good by her to not ruin these . You sound like a strong mum who is doing her best by her daughter, well done

Kathryn, I understand where you're coming from when you say this is your last chance to have a 4th baby. Although in my case i already have 4, i knew i wanted another one and fell pregnant in May of this year. I have also been married since 1993, but have spent the majority of my marriage as a single parent, due to my husband's constant travelling. I am returning to the Uk after dedicating my life and time to his career and dreams as...

Hi Lisa I wanted to send you a huge and let you know that we are here if you want to talk. It is so hard when you are still feeling a strong emotional tie to your ex. The pain can be unbearable. I know that at the moment it seems unlikely but the pain will pass and you will learn to smile again. It sounds like seeing your ex is not helping you. You still have strong feelings for him and he is to a sense playing on these. He is texting you and...

Published (2009-12-13 17:14:00)
I agree with Julie, certanily for me it was like a bereavement and like she says worse as you still see the person and the fact that they are goetting on with their life and sometimes causing you more hurt. I often said (and sometimes still do) it would have been better if my ex had died then i wouldnt have had to see him move on with his life and wont have to see him (although not actually see him) get married to another woman. There wouldnt...

Has he changed the account details? If not, I would keep spending as normal. You are entilted to a shre of his income as you are working at hoime and looking after the kids. Plus, if he is staying put at the moment, you carry on until it changes.

Yeah I think that's fine.

I don't have ex's number so feel free to pass it on. My number is xxx-xxx-xxx Amy You never know it might prompt them to get in touch. Whether you should put...

Maybe you should be really pleased that your DD is comfortable enough with this woman to hug her. You'd hate it if your ex had shacked up with someone who your children couldn't get on with and if this woman is going to be part of your kids lives then better that they feel ...

Hi Michelle, sorry you are having a hard time atm . There are not many 'child friendly' jobs to be had, it is very tough out there atm.

Hello Sam, Welcome to Netmums and thank you for your post. It sounds like you've had an absolutely awful time of it . Was his leaving unexpected? It seems you've supported him and lived with things you weren't happy with, and now he has gone. It is very early days and thus it is completely natural to be upset, grieving for your relationship - even if there was a largely abusive ...

Life certainly isnt over and you wont be destitute, but what is your status? Are you a British citizen and were the children born here or Africa? It depends very much whether you will get any assistance, let alone housing. That doesnt mean you will be on the streets, but you have to be realistic about what you can get and when. Hard as it is, keeping a positive mind will help you overcome many ...

I would think that the best first port of call would be your drs or gum clinic to get yourself checked out. Then take it from there. If it comes back all clear it is up to you if you mention to him about what his ex told you. After all, exs do have it in them at times to be malicious If it comes back that you have got something then you can treated and deal with that. But really your health ...

The answer is yes hun. It does affect it. But not alot. It all depends on how much you get. My ex pays me in the same way. He pays £200 pcm. They do use it to work out how much housing benefit I am entitled to, but they still pay the full amount I am entitled to. It will also affect you income support if you claim it.
