okay so I am going through this whole custody thing. i left my husband about a month ago. I met someone officially about 2 weeks ago. We started hanging out and that's pretty much all we've done. I explained my situation to him and told him we need to take it slow. Now last night I called my ex from his phone cause I didn't have minutes on mine and i blocked the number but he still knew it was a guy even though I never came right out and said it. So now he is threatening to take me to court for this custody thing instead of sticking to the agreement we had just yesterday. My family thinks I am moving too fast with this guy. I really do like him but I also think we may be moving too fast. I have mentioned this before. He said he understands and will give me my time. He already loves me and wants to move in with me. I just feel like I have too much on my plate but how do I break it to him without coming across like a total b%tch?

I would tell the guy your first priority is your kids and where you are at in your divorce it is not possible for him to move in with you. Courts do not like it when a parent is moving someone in with them after they just left someone. It is two hard on the kids. To much change at once. Tell him after you have all your legal stuff taken care of you will see. Two weeks is awful fat for someone to be moving in and telling you they love you. How well does he really know you? How well do you really know him? I have been though all of this with my ex and it was a nightmare. I would wait. If this guy really does love you he will respect your decision and wait also.

You said you explained everything to the new guy and he said he understood and will give you time, except that. You child right now is more important. Your husband is probably jealous that you are with someone else, and will threaten you with anything, especially since he had already made an agreement with you.
Take it slow, if this new guy is the one, he will wait with you until everything is settled.
Think about your child first.

The question I am bothered is, "Are you really over with your husband?". I dont really know the cause for your separation, but I am aware that your husband threatens you for the reason that you are dating some other guy. You might want to consider it that maybe you can still save the marriage for the sake of your children. Or if the love was not there anymore, take it slow. Talk to your husband and explain it to him again whatever your agreements are. Then also explain it well with your kids. Perhaps if the guy your having an affair right now really loves you, then surely, he will understand. And he will wait for you even if how long it takes. That way, you may figure it out if how sincere he is. But as of now, all I can advice is to find yourself first, you might be taking the wrong way or lead. Feel what your heart is telling you, and be firm and stand for your own action and your decision. You may have a lot of advices but it is your decision that prevails.

thank you. Yes I am completely over my husband. I had posted a lot of discussions about him. There is no saving the marriage. It is looking like we might have to go to court for custody cause he calls the agreement off everytime shite doesn't go his way. I sent the guy a message telling him I can't see him for a while. then my phone ran out of minutes and I am at work so I will get more minutes, text him and see what happens.
