Okay a breif background. I have been with my fiance since beginning of 2012. I am divorced with two children 11 and 9. At first everything was really good between me and partner, but lately he has become crazy.

He hates my ex-husband, okay my ex-husband is extremely childish, but he is generally speaking a nice guy who loves his kids and wants to be part of their lives (yeah!). His kids love him too and that is all good. My new partner seems to be upset that my kids love their father more than him. Anyway he wants me to move away from their father. I said no because the kids need their father in their life and they love him and he loves them. I have no right to move them away from their father.

He flipped out and started screaming at me that their father is evil incarnate (totally not true). That his influence on the kids will cause them to wind up in prison or dead or worse. So anyway, I just decided I have had enough. He has called me names lately, called my kids brats. Okay yes my kids can be brats, but I don't let them run crazy or act disrespectful to people. But for the most part they are good kids. Like everyone they have their momemts. He seems to think they should never misbehave. So I decided for my sake and theirs to end it.

I told him so and he started threatening me. I will turn off your phone (we have a cell phone account together and that is the only phone I have). I made the mistake of letting him know my passwords and stuff. I really didn't know he was like this. He also threatened to have the kids taken away from me, by telling my ex a whole bunch of lies about me. So after that threat I answered the phone.

I think he is totally crazy. I am not sure exactly what I should do other than move my phone to my own account, which of course I was going to do anyway. I don't know what if anything to tell my ex. I don't want him to have to be involved in this, which is my mess, but it affects his kids.

Okay I swear he wasn't like this for the first 8 months he was charming and sweet and never got mad. It's like Dr. Jekell and Mr. Hyde. I absolutely hate conflict and usually won't stand up for myself. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I will stand up for my kids though, weird that.

Thanks,
Lynne
