If your husband (common-law) owns a house, and his ex wife and kids live in it, (he bought it after his divorce and decided to let them live in it since his gf at the time refused to leave her apartment)
and he parks his work truck over there, his mail goes there,a lot of his clothes and a lot of other belongings are still there, and he and his ex wife still had joint bills together, would it bother you? They have two kids which are very nice, so is the ex wife, we are on great terms. I have been over there numerous times. She is very hospitable. She even offered to move out so me and him can move in because we had a baby on the way and two dogs. I declined her offer because it just didn't feel right to me.
I can't help but feel somehow like "the other woman" in this relationship, because although i know there is nothing going on between them, it's like he still married to her in a way, even though he lives with me and we now have a 2 month old daughter. He pays the mortgage on that house, she pays the utilities and feeds and dresses the kids. They settled it all out of court, and this is his way of helping without paying child support. I admire him for being so good to all of them, but I feel like chopped liver. It feels strange to me that a divorced man is like best friends with his ex wife, and that they share this house still and that all his stuff, cars, truck, mail is still there and not with me. He thinks I'm childish for feeling that way but I hate this.
