“Though I try to move on and enjoy my life, my son has created an enormous hole for our family.”
Nah, bitch, YOU’RE the one making it a hole, not whole.
“As a father with two small sons, he has chosen a narcissistic delusion over family. That is not how he and his wife see it,”
That should inform your view of it, then. But, no.
you’re all ‘my way, my way, there’s no highway.’
“but that is how I view it. He would happily be a part of our lives, but only if I support his delusion.”
So, YOU’RE choosing ideology over family you fucking poser.
“Since I will not, we effectively do not see each other much.”
As you admit, it’s your choice, your action, an artifact of yours… Don’t blame her.
“ It is heartbreaking and completely contrary to how he was raised. It feels like a dark cloud settled over you and stayed. But, I am trying to move on with my life and I keep the hope that he may come back to us.”
Okay, see, if one of MY kids changed that much, they’d still be MY KID. I’d do everything to keep them in my life. Including trying to see their life from their POV. Not mine.
I cannot FATHOM a parent choosing to ‘move on with my life’ after alienating and abandoning a kid.
MAYBE if they’ve been convicted mutliple times of drug use or child abuse, but it’ll take some impressive effort. Stole my car, photos making it to the national press, name shows up in Congress, stuff like that.
