BeingMe, That was the mistake we made the first go around. I also have to correct one of my earlier posts. I said I made W tell kids. That's incorrect. W wanted to wait to tell kids, but I was the one that forced the issue. I was walking around the house as an emotional wreck. S8 couldn't understand what was wrong w/ Dad. W was walking around like everything just hunkydory. I finally had enough and said we're telling them. W wanted to say M & D not getting along and we're getting D. I had to say "No, Mom wants the D. I still L your M very much and I don't want one." We both told the kids we loved them very much. We just wouldn't be living together anymore.
I realized afterwards may not have been the thing to do. W and W's C certainly agreed. Said it put W in an unfair light to S8. Ya know what maybe it should. S8 very gunshy now. I can't say he know's what's happening right now, but I think he can sense something is about to happen. He's been coming up to me w/ extra huggs and affection, like he did last summer when he knew I was sad. He's now been this again, for the last two weeks.
