I love my life but pls help. Im co-paretnign with a narcissist!!!

My blood still boils.
STILL!!!!
Pls help. Any advise welcome.
My life is pretty great.
I have so much to be thankful for.
But my God, he is one step too far of selfishness.
I ask to go to two classes per week which he can control and take away with out a blink of an eye. and he does often as and when he likes. I have no other baby sitters. I have one friend but her little girl bullies my son and he doesn't like going there...

The narc has been working this week and I so I understood I couldnt go to my classes.
He agreees that I can go to all my classes this coming week only to tell me the next day that he has changed his plans. I say that he hasnt seen his son for a week and he tells me his new girlfriend is going to brazil for two months and he needs to spend a few days with her before she goes and goes into detail about how he will be goign to heathrow with her and staying at his sisters.
he thinks this is ok????? ( I am listening to my teenage sons again :-D)
I am pretty pissed off. I dont really wanna know...
And whats more, he got his knickers in a right twist a few weeks ago because he had our son for the whole week bar a few days, accusing me of not wanting to be with our son. I mean.. PAH!!! then he can just decide as and when to have 7 days or more and then some more not having his son becasue it suits him and becasue of STUPID OW...
I HATE HIM and the hate it crunching up inside me. Even training today I couldn't touch on it. I FEEL so SICK to my stomach with his petty games.
I say look can you please let me know if I can go to my Sunday class, he is like 'look I will tell you later when I know" I may have plans that weekend with 'OW'.
And then he says...
"and Please stop texting me and calling me' its rediculous...'
OMG.
My blood boils....
I mean how am I supposed to know what he is doing? HE NEVER LETS ME KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON... he was supposed to be putting money in the account today and before 3pm. SO at 2.40I saw it was not in there, I tried to call hia few times and left messages and texts. ( I get charged £25 quid else)
he does not reply or respond and then turns up at my door with a face like sin.
He acts like I am the crazy one still. He is still doing this. makign it hard for me to communicate and then accusing me of bugging him...
FUK him, I woudl never ever speak to him again argant cock if I had the choice!!!! I wish I did have that choice.
Tell me how do you go NO CONTACT when you are tryign to negotiate money and child care?????
PLEASE tell me. I really dont want to call and text him and I would rather not have too but he puts me in situations where I have to call or text, he NEVER answers and then I look like the stalker. and all im doign is tryign to get a answer about something. Parents evening for example. I am still waiting to know who will go to parents eveing. I think he will tell me he is spending the eve with his OW when one of us should be going to the shcool. no text, no call and then when I try to conact him I will get accused of stalking him.
I hate him!!!!!!!!!
I try to forgive and be free of the hurt by letting it go but its hard. he still twists me in circles.
Beleive me I love that he is long gone from here but he still manages to get inside me and mess me up just by being so in control of my life. He dictates when I go out or when I do stuff. Healways says.... "your the one with the free house and the money'
He really despises me for the ties I put on him...
I am seeing a solictior soon when they have a legal aid slot.
Will they want to know about his finances?
I hate his shitty seedy world.
I pray one day that God gives me the tools to get away from him.
I pray for that.

It is impossible to go NC

It is impossible to go NC when you have children and finances to discuss. Impossible. I wish I had all the answers for you because I am struggling with the SAME THING. Luckily though - I have my parents to help out if I need a sitter. He is constantly switching up schedules, the back and forth for these kids is RIDICULOUS. I'm talking every other DAY! I am sooo happy because he FINALLY agreed to every other FULL weekends so I can actually take my kids away for a weekend or do a house project for a whole weekend. That's actually how I got him to agree... by telling him that he'll find with his new house it is impossible to do larger house projects as you don't have a full weekend to do it. He talks out both sides of his mouth... for example, we signed our son up for t-ball. Son hates it. I mean HATES it. So I got to the point where I was not going to force him to go. Ex-NH agreed. So last week I didn't make him go and ex-NH shows up in my driveway and we have a huge argument in front of my kids and the neighbor. Then he has to email me his condescending demeaning email about it on Friday, THEN tells me not go get into a back and forth with him while he's working as he's reminded me so many times. I responded, "You don't want the back and forth, don't f**king start with me in email!!!!" I ask him specific questions, he won't answer. I ask him to switch, he makes it impossible yet he changes schedule every other week. It is MADDENING and I so feel your pain. xoxo

Its about power isnt it? They

Its about power isnt it? They have to hold the cards. They dont do 'fare', they do what they want for themselves and they love the way it makes us feel. Frustrated and hurting. They get ore supply form that. They love to says 'dont text me or dont call me' and the lines about being at work... Oh my god these gusy are text book. My Ex-N has says that so many times about callign him etc while he is at work' they open up pandoras box and then they blame all the 'bad air' that comes out on us. PROJECTION!!! It is maddening. he dominates me still, after all these years and after the split up he can still dominate me. I loathe him deeply right now. I am guessign I am not the only one to be dictated too but stupid ex narc about kids care and money but I know one thing.. I will get free of him one day... I will take him son that he makes no effort to see far away form here. x

Oh yes, that is my

Oh yes, that is my favorite... they drop a bomb on you in email (FROM WORK) then tell you not to respond because they are working (huh????) It's like they berate and demean you then put a piece of tape over your mouth. I hear ya... we've been divorced for 2 1/2 years and it still gets me EVERY TIME. As a matter of fact, the emails after last week are what brought me here!

its not enough...

its not enought that they violate you emotionally and mentally and physically during the god damn relationship, it continues long after. I said to my mother today 'How can he still upset me like this' and she said its cos you let him. But Its not as easy as that is it, we both know, we all know here. One miniute we can be strong and upbeat and then one little energy sucking vampiric move from Narc brings us to our knees again like it was yesto. they drain and suck energy becasue they are like balck holes with no love inside them pullign in all those around then to there drakness. SAD! I do not know how but we have to reach real NC. One day eh? Good luck Narcless. I will pray for you too. We have so much life to live and to enjoy. lets claw it back for ourselves. x
