Now I've done it... again

It sounds like a great idea. Win/ win/win. You get to go out. The kids get to spend time with Dad. Dad gets to have a decent meal in a decent place.

I did do this for a while. Happy home and happy kids for reminders. But nothing I tried worked. I wish I could look back and see what worked and what did not work to offer you some foresight. The only thing I can say that would have made a difference is to absolutely do no persuing or snooping and to act like you are dating someone else. At least include men in the GAL even if they are just in the group. Even if you are not dating, date yourself. wear a different perfume, act interested in something new, act happy as if you found someone new and you could not care less about where he sleeps or what he does because you have already moved on with someone new-yourslf-shhh. It is not a game. It is acting as if you are really detached and it is psychology.
