The relationship between the girlfriend and her ex-wife, who divorced nearly seven years ago, and who shares 50/50 custody of their child without a formal child support arrangement, is at a high level of tension. The original poster on the r/AmIOverreacting subreddit stated that her boyfriend's continued financial support for his ex-ex-wife led to questions about their relationship. The OP had previously covered his child's needs directly, but questioned the financial support given by his ex wife. The comments were shared on the Reddit forum, with some suggesting that while the situation was unacceptable, others suggesting that staying with the ex could lead to resentment and anger.
