I hate what she’s done, and now she’s pressuring me to accept the new guy.
I have met him a couple of times and been friendly enough, but I haven’t friended him on social media. She posts photos of them together, and I rarely “like” the photos because II hate what she’s done. It really hurts me. How can I get past this, and how should I handle what I feel is pressure from her to accept this new guy?Your first priority should be to create as stable an environment for your grandchild as possible.
There may have been problems in Maddie and Glenn’s marriage that you weren’t privy to. Be cordial to the new man in your daughter’s life, and in the future stop allowing yourself to become as emotionally invested with the men she dates as you have in the past. From your description of Maddie’s pattern, there may be more on the horizon.My relationship with my granddaughter is nonexistent. My only relevance to her is in the role of benefactor.
Going forward I plan to ignore her inquiries. Conversations with her and my daughter aren’t working. What do you suggest?Because conversations with your daughter haven’t worked, have another one with your granddaughter. Keep in mind that at 14, she may be somewhat self-centered, but she should be told how being ignored for long periods makes you feel.
Explain that you are no longer willing to give gifts of money to a person you aren’t interacting with. Then see if she follows through.
