I don’t know what else to add to the title. My wife is kind of obsessed, stalking and following my ex wife since she told us that she was engaged. Apparently my ex has been seeing this guy for a while but since she’s a mom she didn’t want to make it official until everything is serious not to confuse the children. My wife is in shock and her first reaction to the news is who is this loser then.
But the new guy seems really nice and instead of being glad that at least her step children would have a good man in their mother’s life my wife is very irritated and angry. I would even say jealous. She isn’t following my ex on instagram so she can’t follow the relationship so she sent the new guy a follow request.
I confronted her and she denied being jealous or obsessive. I told her that we should be happy since my children will have to live with this man and it is a good thing that he is good to their mother and that she’s in a happy relationship. It benefits everyone. She told me who in his right mind would want her. I was surprised because why would she not think any human, let alone someone like my ex is worth love. I told her probably plenty would because she is a kind and pleasant person. All hell broke loose and she started calling my ex names. Can anyone help me out here?
