I Feel Like I Am Losing My Daughter To My Exes Girlfriend
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

Exes girlfriend has money. I feel like she is buying my daughter. I was recently at my lowest financially and still teeter every day. Its like she waited until that to entice her with shiny things and trips. She even offered for her to move in with her. I spent the whole day with my daughter on Saturday- make it quality time. All I heard all day was the gf said this or gf did that. I am her mother and feel like i am being replaced. This may sound ridiculous but i cant help how it makes me feel.

I know how that feels, just remember not to say anything bad about her in front of your daughter and keep giving her all the love you have. Don't give up, love trumps money anyday

Be the one who doesn't manipulate your daughter. She will notice before long.

Wow. I went through this with my daughter. She chose her step mom, made me feel horrible for a few years, but she really understood it now. She knows money and possessions are not love and stability. They have to reach an age to understand that, mine didn't until she had her own child.

She does seem like she is noticing her father's manipulation but she is not seeing the gf does it too. Now she is being sucked back in again. They are dangling a new car in front of her.

Hi Tracy I'm not sure how old your daughter is. But blood is always thicker than water. All of the material things will entice her but your love will always shine through the glitter. My daughter was the same when she was younger but as she matured she realised for herself. Sending hugs
