I could have written this! My XAH blatantly lied to the judge and it was ugly to watch. He had his new pregnant girlfriend and father there so I didn’t feel too bad for him. But I still feel sorry for him on a regular basis which is crazy! I should not!
I can also relate to the fear and anger about him being around the kids. Even after my court date, in which he now has supervised custody only, I find myself terrified for what he will pull next.
