My partner is separated and his wife has forced him to sign a document from her lawyer stating that their child can't see me until she says so (so never). He signed only because she was not letting him see her (even on father's day).
His daughter is 6 and loves me. I've been with my partner for a year and a half, however 3-4 times he had gone back to his wife to try to make it work with her for his daughter's sake. After all - it is a requirement when getting divorce that you try to make it work. I know she will use it as something in court, saying he is unstable. She will say that their daughter's mental health is at stake because of all this when in fact it is only from her mother that she receives stress about this topic.
His 6 year old daughter now knows she is not allowed to see me, talk to me, or even talk ABOUT me, even if she wants to. He was always honest with me but he could never be with her again. On Friday when he went to get her and was forced to sign - his daughter came out all ready with all her belongings and her mum said 'don't worry your dad's not taking you' then went back inside till my partner said he'll sign.
Seeing the hurt look on his daughter's face, broke his heart. She has since messaged him to put him down telling him to go have fun with his child (referring to me; as there is an age gap) and that he has nothing and that his daughter does not care if she sees him or not. If we go to court what will happen? Will she win? What she wants is for me not to see her daughter.
She does not want full custody - She can't handle their daughter for too long - She is always palming her off to her sister or family members. I guarantee she does not care about the child in this matter - it is solely her inability to let go of my partner and accept that she has no power over him. Their child is in NO danger when with me - I'm 21 - don't drink, smoke, do drugs. I don't go out clubbing. I have a full time well paying job and am studying at university.
I love my partner more than anything on this earth and I know these issues with his wife will come between us as they have. He is not strong enough to handle her childish drama and his stress often comes out on me. His past experiences with his wife have made him almost afraid of getting married and having children again. She has always been difficult and he sometimes breaks down from the emotional abuse she has caused over the years. From not caring for their child from birth (post natal depression) whereby she would not even hold her baby, to criticising my partner on everything demanding that he do things around the house while she lays around.
We are seeking legal advice within the coming days. I am not trying to put her down. From day one I have tried my best to maintain a level of respect for this women as she mothers my partners daughter. But she's made it so hard. I don't care what she has to say to me or about me but I cannot handle somebody disrespecting or upsetting my partner. Help!
