I'm a divorced Mom with 3 kids. I have scrimped and saved to buy my kids Christmas this year. I have no desire to compete with my Ex who is able to buy the kids anything they want, I just wanted to get a little something for them. My daughter is a big theatre buff and has talked non stop about wanting to see a broadway play. So...I finally managed to save enough to buy her tickets to see "Wicked". This is the only present I bought her. My ex had called and told me what all he bought her and so I thought I was safe. Well... Guess what...he hurried up and had Christmas with the kids and bought her ....what else...Wicked Tickets. I'm so hurt. Not only did he buy her a ticket but she is going with the whore that he divorced me for! Do I have a right to be upset? Now I have nothing to give her for Christmas as I don't have the money to buy anything else.

I'm not sure how I would react but I can be damn sure I would be extremely upset at how and why he did what he did. |

When is the performance you are taking her to? Maybe you will be in luck and it will be before he takes her.
And if not, don't worry, the show is fantastic so she will want to see it again. |

Is it wrong not to want to take her since she will have already seen it? I feel like its left overs. Part of the issue is this woman was my best friend before she helped destroy my marriage. So I really don't want my daughter hanging out with her. This woman drinks excessively now and is not nice to my kids. My ex and this woman have put my kids in dangerous situations several times.

Not wanting her to be around her father's new woman is different, but I am sure she will love the show. When I went to see it, I would have gone back in for the evening performance that night.
Tell her you bought the tickets and didn't know that her father got them too. Don't spoil a special memory you two will have together just because he took her to see the same show. |

If she and your ex are putting your kids at risk and in such dangerous situations.. I would tell the courts or even DHS.. some one or something that can do something about it so your kids won't be in any more dangerous situations like that. |

Unfortunately the courts have swung so far the other way nothing was ever done. |

okay so let me make sure i got this right...
did you tell him you bought them or not? because if you didn't tell him ... then you have no right to be pissed at him. if you did.. then yeah. have at it. people are petty. thats life. find a way around it for your daughters sake. and tell her the truth. "i bought you the tickets, not knowing that your dad did the same thing. do you still want to see it with me too?" if she says no.. ebay them. or cheaptickets.com ya know? find a way. if she says yes... then there ya go. i'm not even gonna touch the stuff about your kids and your ex's girl. thats really not what this threads about right? its about the gift... |

Try and turn a negative into a positive, if possible. See if you can sell the tickets to somebody else, and buy tickets instead for a Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert, if they haven't already been through your area. Trust me, it will be WELL worth the necessary swap.
See if he can beat THAT one! (He can't) |

(He can't) trans siberian??? thats an acquired taste... i agree accept pick something she'd like. like cheaper tix to a lil dinner theatre. thats what my mom and i used to do. totally cheaper and a hell of alot of fun. |
