It is tough for the over 50's to find someone, especially we women. Add to that mix if you are in any kind of recovery, from eating, relationships that never worked (a kind of compulsion), prescription drugs, and the regular codependant stuff as well as the alcohol or street drugs. This is why I founded this new site, and it has just been launched so please share it with everyone you know, since we ALL have someone in our family or friend circle that has been touched by these problems.

All that agitation from the ex is a power play on his part and saps your emotional energy. At some point I just stopped responding or told him I didn't care. It eventually irons out if you don't keep getting pulled in. Hang in there. PS.There is a good book about handling Toxic People by Lillian Glass, check it out.

I wish there were some way to permanently extricate him from my life. It's not so much an anger problem, but he is constantly irratating me with arguments over the children, which he MUST win, no matter how untenable his position. I don't think he is over it. No matter where you are in your recovery, if your ex creates problems for you, then it makes it hard to have a new relationship without some of the old baggage seeping into the new relationship.
