| agreed, but make sure your son is okay, boys have a way of holding back emotions doesn't mean they don't have them. |

| i am still watching my son's emtions and he seems to be coming along......he is getting ready for junior prom and my ex said he would help him....my son is taking one of my ex's 3rd or 4th cousins...and that brings me to my next problem.....i have close relations with my ex's family and I was at one of their functions this weekend and even hung out with one of his younger cousins Sat night (his family is huge and it includes an enormous amount of church family or it just feels that way) anyway I am wondering should I break off involvement with because being around them takes me back to the feelings that I am trying to work through about my ex........i feel confused because they have always embraced my son and he is leaning on them for support right now.........but his family is also alwasy making comments like "you are still our family and you still married to our cousin no matter what"......sometimes I feel like taking a really long trip and get away from everyone.........get my life together and bring a date to one of their functions.......just want this to be at peace on so many levels............im drained....... |

| i think in the long run you can still be close to them but right now you need to do what is right for you and your family meaing your son and daughter whatever that means for you. |

Yes, I cannot just rip my son away from them.....this will be a great test for me.....I will just have to laugh it off and ignore their comments.......and keep straight ahead with my task of not going back to a bad situation.....
the prom will be a good experience for my son and our families but not to be used as a bridge to put me back at square 1.....
Yes, I can attend their functions......most of the time my ex is not even there and I am very close to them as we all go to the same church but I will have to carve out some personal time for myself without them.....this should be interesting.......see what I am really mad of........ |
