A horrified woman has revealed her ex husband asked her to be a surrogate for him and his new girlfriend, despite having little to do with their own child they share together.

It can be a difficult time when a former spouse moves on with a new partner, especially when there are children involved. Ideally everyone is accepting and the situation is handled with respect and sensitivity.

However for one divorcee, this certainly wasn't the case when her ex husband told her he had a new girlfriend. Their relationship was already extremely contentious because of difficulties over the daughter they share together.

She shared her story with others on Reddit where she expanded on the parenting issues. "He does absolutely nothing for her. He asked for full custody because he didn't want to pay child support. I finally got him to agree to supervised visits and zero child support," she wrote.

Despite this, he hadn't seen his daughter for the last three months and the former couple had had little to no contact during that time, unless through a third party. That was until he decided to let his ex know about his "hot 18 year old girlfriend". The exes had agreed to tell each other about any new relationships because that person may meet their daughter.

What she didn't bank on was receiving far too much information on his new girlfriend: "He's always 'accidentally' sending me nudes of bikini pictures of her. Or 'accidentally' sending me messages meant for her," she revealed.

As if that wasn't bad enough, he then disclosed that he wanted to have a baby with his new lady. "He's irresponsible and she's immature so they would make horrible parents," she added. However things were to take an even weirder turn when he asked his ex wife to be their surrogate.

She then revealed the gobsmacking reason he had given for this strangest of requests: "Her teenage body is so 'hot and sexy' and I'm 'old and used'."

Other users of the site were understandably mortified and were quick to share their views on her former husband. "Good grief this guy needs to be a poster child for, 'what went wrong during my lobotomy'????" raged one before advising her to take action. "Ask your lawyer to revisit child support. Give him a good laugh. But if he can afford more children.... Save all you can. Videotape him. Seriously - this could work to your advantage."

"He's the poster child for 'I got my lobotomy at Claire's.' That's how he met his new girlfriend, duh," added another. A third believed there was a clear agenda behind his awful request: "His actions are deliberate," they wrote.

"The bikini shots and comments are 'look at what I have now'. To undermine you, he no longer has control so he's trying to make you feel ugly and well, used up. I agree, go for child support. Get your child away from this man. The misogyny and general unpleasantness of this man will seep into your child. "

While others pointed out what he had done could get him into legal bother for another reason: "Sharing nudes of anyone, regardless of age, is revenge porn. So he's screwed anyway," said one. Another commented: "I'm also pretty sure sending unsolicited nudes to an unwanting party is harassment, particularly if already told to stop sending those messages."
