Question - (21 July 2013) 1 Answers - (Newest, 22 March 2014)
A female United States age 41-50, *enieMil writes:

Ok. I know I am going to probably sound juvenile and selfish, but here goes. I have had a turbulent relationship in the past with my son's father. Our past involves his substance abuse, leaving me and our then infant son for another woman, coming back to us, arguing and domestic violence. The last several months have been fair to good and he appears to be trying to make things right, though reverts back on occasion to moodiness and abusive behaviors. He has been sober about a year too. His teenage 18 year old daughter gave birth to a son recently and he is the doting grandfather. Problem is my jealousy of his relationship with his grandson. See, I have buried our past deep within and seeing him be the kind if grandfather to his grandson, that he wasn't to our son at that age infuriates me. It also brings up past memories of when my son was little and his abuse and infidelity. I am tempted to leave him for good as I cannot handle this psychologically. He says I am just being shallow. Any advice would be appreciated as I know the baby is innocent but I can't help how I feel with those buried emotions resurfacing.
