A , anonymous writes:

My boyfriend and his Ex-Wife have been divorced since thier little girl was a baby, she is now 12. We have been together for almost 2 years now. When birthdays or holidays come up, my boyfriend always asked his little girl if she wants to get her Mother anything. It bothers me that he askes her and doesn't wait for his little girl to ask him. I don't think it would bother me if his little girl asked first if she could get her Mother something. Am I just thinking immaturaly or should I worry about it?

nope i think your boyfriend just thinks its his duty to make sure that his daughter buys her mum something because come on she is only 12 years old and she isnt going to remember her mums birthday unless she is reminded!! you may ruin thing with your boyfriend if he carry on and really do you want to throw away 2 years of a relationship because of this!!!

Hi,

I do the exact same thing for my ex, becaused i know that my children would feel bad about not getting him anything for his birthday or xmas. I am in a new relationship which my ex is unable to accept and therefore will not return the favour for me. Which results in me giving my children money and taking them to get me something, so they dont feel bad, its not such a suprise and therefore not the same for them.

You are very lucky that you have some one who is so caring, and i do feel he is doing it more for his child than his ex.

So dont worry.

I hope you dont mind that i have relayed my own experience, i thought it might help you.

You shouldn't worry about a thing he is with you right??? He is just trying to keep a good relationship with his girls mother at least for his girls sake. Or maybe he just will always have a place in his heart for her because they have a child together. But I wouldn't think anything into it then him being nice. Plus you need to trust him, if you don't there really isn't much of a relationship there. If you'r worried about him getting back with her just think about what I said, he is with you......
