Because again, they have CHILDREN together. Don't you think the children have been thru enough already? geeze louise!
It's this self centered-ness that causes the death of a family already, and here we have more of it being spouted.
Too many crazy folks so focused on me me me all the time.
To the OP. Just go home. Let this family be a family as much as possible. You are obviously just a side-note being used for something nasty
.
HAHA!!! you act like the "children" are little or still in the house. They are young adult men in their 20's. When I was in my 20's I was in the Army.
I do agree with you though about her and her relationship with the former in laws. I have been divorced since Sept 2012 and I still talk to my former in laws on a weekly basis. We had a great relationship (a lot better than the 18 year one with their daughter). I told them I would back away and not interfere with my ex and her new husband if she chose to have a relationship again with her family.
I agree also that the OP needs to go back home. The OP also created a post on here saying he didn't trust his GF because she was texting or messaging guys on facebook.....no trust = no relationship.
I'm not sure why people are posting as if the kids are small children. The kids are in their 20s, so it is no longer the parent's job to make Christmas special.
For Pete's sake.
OP, I would move back home and I would also spend time wondering why I allowed myself to get played like this.

I think these adults who somehow couldn't get along, or love each other enough to remain a family unit for their children, can at least spend the holidays together for their children during Thanksgiving, Xmas, etc
And if the father and mother in-laws and their daughter in law still enjoy each other and are bonded, as mother (inlaws) and father (inlaws) do with their daughter (in law) there is no reason why there should be a death of that relationship to boot.

The kids ARE NOT KIDS ANYMORE, LOL!! Maybe you missed that! No reason for her to celebrate holidays with the EX!! The ADULT kids can spend the holidays with both parents, separately!
The woman wanting to spend holiday time with her ex and his family isn't the concerning part, it's her coldness towards the OP that is the concern. Sounds like she is distancing herself from the OP both emotionally and physically.

This isn't about making it "special" it's about how most kids, minors or not, appreciate having their family together at Xmas. It's not Rocket Science.
I agree with he needs to move back home but not the played part. He is messing with a woman he barely knows, shacking up with her and her kids. It's the kids who are the victims here, getting played like violins. Sad. Let the family be a family during the holidays.

Nothing changes. Minor children or adult children, everyone wants their family together during the holidays. Again, not Rocket Science

I hope not. OP, you should talk to her about this. Maybe you two could find a New Year's party to go to together?
