CW, I know you had your H take responsibility even though you didn't turn him into a bad guy necessarily. What do the kids make of that piece of it--that it was his decision?
When I think of all that a D will entail--untangling almost 20 years of combined stuff, finances (and me being financially dependent on him for 12 years), it is just overwhelming, to say the least. H has done all the bills and financial stuff, retirement, etc.
We'd need another car, too, probably. And we have quite a bit of debt. And a renovation to make our 3rd floor a rentable apt.
Is it crazy to think he and I could agree to live together but only be friends/parents until we get logistics and finances figured out?
