Dude, I know I'm just a stranger and it doesn't mean much but I'm so sorry.

Chewiemuse · 2016-06-11T22:08:38+00:00

Fuck man...

anonoodlin · 2016-06-11T22:47:53+00:00

It's not his fault, it's not your fault. Use the opportunity to make the next time you see him even better. He will appreciate it, now and later.

JackGetsIt · 2016-06-11T22:24:32+00:00

This post made me burn with anger. I hope you know that what she did is a pure power play.

Shit... this broke my heart

KamiNekoSama · 2016-06-11T23:01:24+00:00

Fuck man.... i am sorry. I have witnessed this kind of shit with friends going through divorce. I am so sorry.

EclipseClemens · 2016-06-11T22:55:43+00:00

I am so sorry that happened bro

bigbadbyte · 2016-06-11T23:35:06+00:00

Well, that's the most I've teared up looking at a pokemon birthday set up.

I'm sorry dude, nothing I'm feeling compares to how you feel but my heart broke for you.

Tymalic · 2016-06-11T23:23:47+00:00

You send ghat woman this picture. You let her know how bad of a person is, so everytime she whisper in your sons ear- she will know her fault, and everytime she will die a little. Whether she endures or not, she will die a little.

Invicturion · 2016-06-11T23:30:14+00:00

This kind of stuff gets me furious...... As a divorce child myself, i wish i had a dad as awesome as you man!! I really hope/wish that you are able to give the little guy a great birthday party!! You have a fan right here buddy!!!! Dont give up! Keep being awesome!

ruthless_apricot · 2016-06-11T23:20:00+00:00

Holy shit this is so sad man. Nothing on reddit gets to me anymore but jesus... fuck her. We're here for you always.

swoltz · 2016-06-12T00:24:44+00:00

I'm guessing from the decorations that he's still fairly young. Man, I promise you, he knows who his dad is. And she can pull this bullshit all she wants, but it WILL backfire on her in the long run, and that's going on experience. Hell, get another cake, and have that party the next time you have him anyway! He will NEVER forget stuff like that, I promise. Keep your head up, and keep being an awesome dad…it will not go unnoticed.

CAMYtheCOCONUT · 2016-06-11T23:23:31+00:00

I actually teared up

TheRealTakazatara · 2016-06-11T23:31:44+00:00

This made me very sad, I'm so sorry and I hope things work out for you.

Kuato2012 · 2016-06-11T23:40:46+00:00

Hurts me in my heart. This beer's for you.

tlahwm1 · 2016-06-12T00:41:24+00:00

What kind of evil do you have to be to something like this? This breaks my heart as much as it makes me enraged. I'm sorry, dude.

Creature_73L · 2016-06-12T00:50:53+00:00

And Pokemon themed too, that would be a blast!

2016-06-12T01:35:36+00:00

I like the outrage here despite having literally zero context. OP could have restricted custody for all kinds of valid reasons, but because it's /r/mensrights the woman must be in the wrong.

BigJ76 · 2016-06-11T22:43:45+00:00

What a cunt

TheXanderp · 2016-06-12T00:16:51+00:00

Heartbreaking, It's always horrible when people use their children to play manipulative games. I'm sure your son would have enjoyed his Pokemon party.

Champigne · 2016-06-12T00:46:30+00:00

Fuck that. I'm sorry man. Co-parenting and can be really shitty.

12345adios · 2016-06-12T00:51:39+00:00

Going through divorce now and this is my biggest fear. She doesn't seem like she would do it but I'm terrified.

bassshred · 2016-06-11T22:56:39+00:00

Fuck that cunt. We really need to start an organization for Mens Rights

2016-06-12T00:14:28+00:00

I'll drink one for you tonight. Be well my friend

flaccid_randy · 2016-06-12T00:25:22+00:00

This got me right in the feels :( what that bitch did was cruel on a level I can't even fathom. You seem like an awesome dad and your son is lucky to have you as a father

Quinnnnnnnnn · 2016-06-12T00:29:26+00:00

Oh my god, dude... I am so, so sorry. This made me literally gasp out loud, the dog I'm babysitting got all worried. There are no words... I'm so sorry. This is the kind of stuff that keeps me up at night, damn.

2016-06-12T00:43:53+00:00

All these sad birthday posts on Reddit today are breaking my heart :(

Sasha_ · 2016-06-12T02:10:03+00:00

I am always amazed/speechless/depressed by the 'step-dads' and boyfriends of these women, who conspire to screw-over other men and these children.

I hope the pussy is worth it.

This is fake and fuck you for it.

Your comments history has you as a dock worker, fake protester, owner of a burger joint, and attending school.

Alabastercrab · 2016-06-12T00:42:24+00:00

Can I play devils advocate for a minute? 1. Don't you have a custody order in place? 2. If she's "taking him to his step-dads" doesn't that mean the same as she's keeping him home?

2016-06-11T23:51:57+00:00

This is awful. I'm so sorry...be strong brother.

littledude46 · 2016-06-12T00:00:22+00:00

As a child of divorce my mother would pull the same stunts with my dad... You just have to believe that it will come around full circle and it will! Your son may not know it now but trust me he will understand as he gets older.

ErikThe · 2016-06-12T00:17:56+00:00

Ouch...

CynicalSoup · 2016-06-12T00:22:33+00:00

Immediate chills.........

Jenkinsmyhatplease · 2016-06-12T00:27:01+00:00

What time is it. I'll come :D

iamnotsven · 2016-06-12T00:43:27+00:00

If you are in Nashville area come to McNamara

SlipperyDishpit · 2016-06-12T00:45:05+00:00

sits at the bar with you Here, your tab's on me.

ustael · 2016-06-12T00:53:21+00:00

Keep your head up! When your son gets older he will have his own say in when he wants to see you. Keep these pictures so when he asks about the truth, you can show him.

PuddlesOfFudge · 2016-06-12T00:55:04+00:00

I feel for you

revenjack · 2016-06-12T01:02:26+00:00

Bro. It's okay. I cried when my ex refused to let me spend time with my son on his 1st birthday.

Pezto · 2016-06-12T01:03:36+00:00

That would have been a kick ass party. I'm so sorry man.

Atkailash · 2016-06-12T01:06:47+00:00

God this makes me sad. And angry. How can someone be so fucked up to do that?

Furah · 2016-06-12T01:12:04+00:00

You did everything right by your son, yet both of you are being punished and it's not fair. :(

AndrewKemendo · 2016-06-12T01:12:23+00:00

Fuck man, that is sad as hell.

Don't worry, though he might appreciate you when he's older. Maybe - if his mom doesn't fuck him up too bad.

Highcalibur10 · 2016-06-12T01:13:32+00:00

Holy shit. I'm a fairly relaxed person. I don't often get angry.

There are very few things that can make me actually seethe with anger, but this is one of them.

My heart goes out to you man, no one deserves that type of person's presence in their life whatsoever.

2016-06-12T01:14:15+00:00

Hell get older and he will understand. Eat that cake and drank some drank

robledog · 2016-06-12T01:16:00+00:00

That's a fucking Gâteau🎂!!!!

hello_kitty_lover321 · 2016-06-12T01:16:40+00:00

I think my heart just broke into a million pieces.

poonishapines · 2016-06-12T01:18:40+00:00

You're a good dad man.

2016-06-12T01:19:04+00:00

Sorry buddy.

obedgm · 2016-06-12T01:19:44+00:00

Aye fuck that shit boi. Throw him a surprise party next time you see him without telling his mom. Invite tons of people and buy him gifts so he can't stop talking about how great the party was for a month

2016-06-12T01:20:49+00:00

That is incredibly sad, but make another day special for him. I don't remember many of my birthdays as being particularly special, but I definitely remember the good times I had with my Dad.

kimmie13 · 2016-06-12T01:21:05+00:00

I cried. My daughters father isnt in her life and I couldnt imagine ever doing this to him. I hope you guys can keep a close bond despite her actions

TheWalkingHyperbole · 2016-06-12T01:21:49+00:00

Your son will one day realize what a great Dad you are. It may not seem like right now because of what's going on, but he will. I feel for you, man. I'll dedicate a cold one to you tonight!

SovietBear666 · 2016-06-12T01:22:01+00:00

This might be the most heartbreaking post I've seen on reddit.

CoolDragon · 2016-06-12T01:27:02+00:00

Went through something similar the past 2 father's days. Hang in there brother, they'll grow up and hopefully, eventually look for us. Meanwhile I feel for you and with you.

MrRiggs · 2016-06-12T01:30:01+00:00

I know it doesn't mean much but I'm sorry bro. That's got to be pretty rough.

fozzie1984 · 2016-06-12T01:32:56+00:00

Aw man internet hugs to you.stay strong and be the best dad you can be.big love from the UK

Handlifethrowaway · 2016-06-12T01:36:18+00:00

This happened to my dad with his other son from another marriage one year during Father's day.

My dad was all set to take me and his son fishing, and had been looking forward to it for months.

The very day before, he receives a call from his son's mom, saying "We're having Zacks Bday tomorrow (father's day), if he wants to go fishing after he opens his presents then he can if he wants."

Bitch knew damn well no 8 year old kid is going to want to go fishing after getting a PS1 and hella games. His birthday wasn't even for a couple weeks anyway. It was a total power play.

I always hated Zack because he let his mom manipulate the shit out of him, which always ended up hurting my dad. Now I know it wasn't always his fault, but still, the amount of times he chose other stuff over my dad was too high.

We didn't go fishing for Father's day. My dad stayed in his room that year, while I wondered why I wasn't good enough to take fishing by myself.

Fuck you Kristen, burn in hell.

Anyway OP, I'm so sorry :(. I don't know what the pain feels like, but I've seen it, and it hurts. Hope things get better.

Duke_Skylarker · 2016-06-12T01:44:00+00:00

My dad is a fantastic dad. When I was 13 he and my mom divorced. He adopted me at 7 because my biological father was not around. Anyway, right after they were divorced, my brother and I caught my mom with another dude a month after the divorce. My mom built a big story about my dad and all these things he did and turned me against him to make her look better. This all came out when I was19 and my mom really hasn't been around since. My dad is a great dad and friend. He's very involved with my kids and my mom never met them. Women are predisposed to be cunts and loyal to dick.

JustinDuFont · 2016-06-11T23:36:52+00:00

Listen buddy, today is just a day like any other, we valuate birthdays by using a Roman calendar used for farming. That kid will have strong memories of you that will be far more valuable than any stupid birthday, trust me, he just wants to open the toys and go home to play with them. You still have your whole life ahead of you to create amazing son and dad memories, look forward to that while you better yourself, much love.

Funcuz · 2016-06-11T23:43:50+00:00

What a bitch.

NoBreaksTrumpTrain · 2016-06-12T00:53:39+00:00

Your ex is a fucking terrorist.

ThePigmanAgain · 2016-06-12T01:48:05+00:00

The woman is a piece of turd. I hope she gets electrocuted by a pissed-off Pikachu.

lucianio · 2016-06-12T00:04:02+00:00

Well, you could be a piece of shit, why should we automatically side with you?
