Let the Ex Go

Dear Jasmine,

My ex was an abusive father and husband and now he has nothing to do with his kids. He is involved with someone that he spends all his free time with and she has two teenagers. I want to know if I should tell her that he was abusive or let her find out for herself.

What baffles me is that she stays with him and hasn’t seen his house, which is a total junk yard, and doesn’t she ever wonder why he has nothing to do with his kids. Also, why do I even care?

Dear Stephanie,

I am glad you asked that question because I was about to ask you the same question. You probably still have some unresolved feelings for your husband and that is why you want to warn this lady so you can hopefully get rid of her. You don’t want him to feel any kind of happiness because of the way he treated you. I think that if it is best for your kids to not be around him then let him go and focus on your life.

There is no need to meddle in his life as I don’t think you would want him to do to you. Your marriage is over and done, it is time for you to start fresh and you cannot do that when you are watching over his shoulder all the time.

Always here,
Jasmine
