I can't help feeling hurt that my mum hasn't thought about how hard this is going to be for me, especially when I have worked so hard to move on from the divorce.

Dear Coleen My mum is planning a five-day family holiday for my dad's 80th birthday in September and wants us all there, including my ex, who I can't stand.

He was a jerk when we were together and he slept with someone else, which was the final nail in the coffin for our marriage. Yet my family still seem to love him for some unknown reason.

I think your mum has been so focused on getting things right for your dad that she hasn't considered the emotional toll on you or even the practicalities of your ex being there.
