Yuck, what a total creep!

Your story rings true for me though. XH left me, 2 weeks later was in a relationship with a young naive woman and I could just see her filling my exact lace, being controlled completely and walking in his shadow. They are now engaged and almost married, makes me laugh cause I know it will turn crappy very quickly fer her, but I also feel a tiny bit sorry for her as well.

Try not to wory about your kids too much, maybe she is a lovely woman who will treat your children wonderfully. You can only hope.

I know how hard it is, I feel your pain xxxxx
