very good question, neph. ow does have a son, one about 6 months older than our eldest. I'm not sure how being a stepparent will simplify things for him. she has split custody with her x, so she only has him every other week...maybe that helps? I didn't even think to ask. its funny, though, he still wouldn't admit to living with her...just said he was living out of a bag. I don't know why? trust me, it would have been among the least hurtful things he spewed at me.
or maybe its not really the kids at all, maybe its more about me. he still wants to spend time with the kids and such, I think really it all comes down (obgligation talk included) to me...he just doesn't want me. if I would just disappear, not the kids, just me, and he could insert ow in my place, I think he'd be pretty happy. for now.
