I wanna meet your boyfriend...(Open letter)

Dang, divorce can be so ugly. This started out so amicable, but now .....wow. It's getting ugly in here.
A few weeks ago I was greeted with a sort of growling/intimidating request.
"And I want to meet your boyfriend"
"Huh?"
"I said I want to meet your boyfriend! You got a problem with that?"
This request has thrown me for a loop. Honestly. A boyfriend? After what I just went through I'm supposed to have a boyfriend now? What makes you think I even HAVE a boyfriend anyway? I'm not the one that packed up, faked living w/ a friend & almost immediately moved in with someone new...not only that, but introducing the kids & having them spend the night in her place... all the while deceiving their mother to think you were staying with another friend. Oh what a tangled web...you tell one lie followed by another and another. Don't you ever get tired of it all? I mean really!

I'm happy you did find someone else that's willing to put up with the lies, the BS, carryout all your demands & such. So so so happy for ya'll. But my boyfriend? Why after all this time do you ask to meet him? What difference does he make in the scenario at this point? You see... kinda like that Kelly Clarkson song...

• Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
• Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt.
• Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me....

So sorry to disappoint you, but you won't be meeting my boyfriend any time soon. Why? Cuz I have to meet him first!

The standard has been set SO HIGH now I'm not sure if I'll even be able to date again... but I'm not worried. The next man in my life....whoa, he's gonna be something special. Much better than anyone I had before. Now I ain't sayin' I'm a gold-digger.. but I ain't messing w/ a broke..broke...
Anyway.... sorry to burst your bubble.... but I'm not like you. I'm not in a rush to hook up because I cannot stand on my own. I'm taking my time so I can get it right this time. And if I ever fall in love again, I will be sure that that man is MY FRIEND! Not sure you even know anything about that.

And David- unlike all the other groupies you have.... I wasn't trying to DATE you. I'm not your type anyway. I just thought you would be cool people to be friends with!
