You should be dating other people, too.

You two don't have a committed, monogamous relationship. There is nothing for you to get on him about. He is not your boyfriend. He can do what he wants.
So if I don't like it or anything about it, I can't say anything?

If you were really done, you'd be able to walk away no problem.

It sounds like you want a big dramatic confrontation where he will make a stand for you.

But he hasn't done that in seven years. Aren't you tired of wasting your life?

No. You can't say anything about him seeing other girls. You are not boyfriend/girlfriend, which means both of you can date other people.

No! Because he's not your boyfriend. You willingly volunteered for this non-relationship over and over again, and to get mad at him because your non-boyfriend may or may not be talking to someone?

This is a manufactured situation. If you want to have an actual say about how he treats you, WALK AWAY and stay away.

No the last thing I want is any drama. I am honestly just confused. I should just walk away and not say a word or just ask him what's going on with her and tell him how I feel and then just be done? I'm no looking for drama.

Just walk away without saying why?

We get together when it's convenient for him.

Well I don't like it and told him so, but he stayed on.

I also feel like he's been blowing me off a little...

He tells I need to get that he's always busy with his kids.

But as far as I know he's not seeing anyone else. I do question this woman because it's obvious we were seeing each other. She can't have been clueless. She should know better because she's older.
If you were really done with the BS, you wouldn't be saying "Easier said then done." So clearly you're not done at all.

You're still trying to put it on her because you can't even direct your anger on the right target.

So do I just walk away without saying anything? How can I have a say about how he treats me if we aren't talking? I did walk.away with no contact for 2 years but he called me. How should I do this?
