My ex expects the world to revolve around him

Back story..:: we were together for many years. It had its fair share of ups and downs. The downs were terrible. He has spat in my face. Called me names. Hit me. The list goes on and on. But I didn't help the situations by my horrible words during heated arguments. I was toxic with my words. He was toxic with his actions. In the end we broke up, which should of happened sooner than it did. He kicked me out of our family home and moved someone else straight in. Fast forward to now. He came to my house to see our child. I wasn't expecting him, he just turned up unannounced. As he always does. I've been thinking for a while now that I don't want to settle where I am and if the opportunity came for me to move away I'd take it. So this came up in conversation and I mentioned that I'd like to move someplace else. He instantly said "well what about me, I want to see our child". Once I explained I wouldn't be going anywhere too far and he would be within driving distance so can still see his child, he started laughing at me. Like as if I was making some kind of joke about moving away. Not taking me seriously. I told him this isn't about him, where I live doesn't revolve around him and what he wants. I need to do things for myself and be happy and of that means not living where I am then so be it! Of course I wouldn't leave the country or move miles and miles away, but just get out of this certain area! Why does he think its funny? Like I'm making some kind of joke? He's such an idiot

@lisa. Wowww! You sure have a lot to say for someone who hasn't got the first clue what their talking about. Firstly, I was thinking of moving with my DAUGHTER about 10 mins drive up the road, just outside of our village! She would still go to the same school, the only difference would be that our house is in a different village so I don't know where you've managed to pull all this 'negative won't graduate' bullshit from but you're talking through your ass 😂. Also, it's not me with a problem whatsoever! My life revolved around him for 8 fucking years, most of that time being abused so I have every right put my own needs before his thank you very much. You have no idea what you're talking about so sit down please
