My DH has a daughter from his first marriage. The marriage broke up was before I met him and he had given up trying to see his daughter because of the relationship with his ex.
I have been married to him for forty years and have met the girl on about six occasions. She is now 43. We have one son aged 33.
Recently she contacted my sister in law to arrange a meeting just with DH. When I contacted my sister in law to ask why she had intervened in this way and not involved me, she told me that there is no hidden agenda and his daughter wants him to meet her two children who are 10 and 8.
DH has recently had heart surgery and not fully recovered.
I’ve told this story in a matter of fact way because I am so upset and angry with my sister in law and I don’t want any contact with his daughter. I am surprised by the strength of my feelings.
I can see the girl maybe felt abandoned and has a right to contact her father but why now after not being in contact for so many years. I feel we would need some counselling to get through this as we are all virtual strangers. To be honest, I also suspect her motives.
Have you read any good books lately?
