Thank you so much for the replies. It gave me cold chills to read the responses. I am standing my ground on this. And praying daily that he will see I will not change the way I feel. I agree that if I allow him to make me remove her from my life then he will feel in control. I can not allow that.  I am happy that I found this site. It always helps knowing I am not the only one in this big ole crazy world dealing with something like this. Once again Thank you so much. God Bless

My youngest son has told me he will not be a part of my life any longer. I am very close to his ex wife, she has been in my life since she was 14. Yes she did make some bad choices during their marriage, that eventually led to their divorce. Both very young at the time. They have 1 son together that means the world to me. Since then my son has married again, this woman had 2 kids already and they have had a set of twin girls since their marriage. I have tried everything within my power to be kind and generous to his new wife, However she is a very sarcastic rude person. And has MAJOR jealousy over the ex wife and I being so close. To make a long story short, my son is now saying unless I end my relationship with his ex that he no longer wants to be a part of my life. This is destroying me... I love my son more than life it's self. I feel it is very selfish of him to expect me to just turn off my love for his ex. She is ALWAYS here for me. I have several medical issues and there's times I can't even walk, And she is the one that is always here to help me. Since marrying this other woman my son has changed in so many ways. He was always a very caring person and very forgiving, He in fact asked me after he and his first wife divorced to please forgive her for the mistakes she made and never to turn my back on her. But now it's an entire different story.  I have never compared his new wife to his ex wife.  I have messaged my son numerous times , he will not respond to me at all. Please Help!! :'(
