I think dating is not the time now as well. would you want H to be dating now? I know it would be such a huge ego boost, and possibly great fun too, but you are in a very vulnerable time right now and I'm not sure that meeting this guy would be the best option right now. I totally understand why you want to though. and I understand you feel you have the will power to not let anything happen, but I've been there, and will power doesn't always work.

about homeschooling... that is SO cool. I did that with my s9 for the first 3 years, but it was one thing that H hated so he's been in school for two now. not sure if it was the best, but he's doing okay so far. BUT, many judges base the amount of child support/alimony based on what the wife is "used to". Say, you have not worked, and you homeschooled and H worked and took care of everything...well, the courts would acknowledge that as well. If you are still wanting to homeschool, and you think the kids benefit from that, then you should talk to your family friend and see what can be done about it. The other thing is putting them in school and do you want them in public? otherwise, private is very expensive, and it might not be that much different from if you homeschool. I don't know. lots of things to consider.

I also agree that H is jealous.... or at least he's upset that he's not becoming "happy" now even after he's been released from you, and that's probably making him even more miserable, as well as the fact that your happy.
