My partner still calls his ex-wife "ma"

[yelle]

Hi sissies, this has been bothering me. I hope you can advise me on this.

My partner and I has been living together for almost 2 years now, both separated from our partners. We are childless at the moment, my partner and I love each other deeply and cherish being in each others lives, but a shadow of the ex-wife seems to loom over and create tension between us.

I found out recently that they call each other ma & pa thru text/chat and even calls. She tries to use her kids and even create scenarios just for him to give her attention. I try to be chill about it because I understand they have kids but I can?t help feeling robbed of something that should be mine, I feel insulted and hurt in a way, as we are planning to have our own soon.

When you say ex-wife, are they legally separated or annulled? If sa Pinas sila kinasal, there is no divorce yet. Anyway, lets not make things complicated.

Your partner should not call his ex wife that way. I understand your frustration, kahit sino magwoworry sa ganyang situation. First, how did you find out theyre calling each other ma & pa? If you invaded his privacy by checking his personal messages, you cannot tell him that youre upset about it. Just play along and observe, as long as youre confident theyre not doing anything unusual apart from that, just let him.

If they call each other ma & pa in social media or in public, mas nakaka high blood, but you can definitely tell him it doesnt sound & feels right. Explain politely they should just call each other by 1st name na lang.

Your partner won't stop being a dad to their children. And I think you understand that. But these ma and pa, you have to stop, or it will haunt you all your life. Try to explain that it hurts you and let them with the ex-wife go to more "cold" names.

Tell your husband to let him make a decision, so let your husband feel he is doing things that hurt you. If he is still not definitive with his ex-wife, then you don't need to hold on. animal crossing

They are downright insensitive for still calling each other Ma and Pa. If I were you I will talk to my husband and ask him how would he feel if it's the other way around. Is it okay if you call your ex Dad or Pa?
