lwb- I'm glad that it was a peaceful meeting. Not surprised that you were calm when your H was uncomfortable.

I understand this feeling. I remember the awkward, uncomfortable feeling when we were both in the same room or bed. Now, not so much. Maybe it's more me feeling that way now though, as I still see the uncomfortable look on my H's face at times. As well he should feel that way.

Getting along with H brings me peace. Getting along with him as my xH will also bring me peace.
Thinking of my future and knowing I'll be ok with or without him brings me peace.
My girls happiness brings me peace, and us getting through this with no scars is most beneficial to them.
I understand those feelings too. It's hard to describe them to family & friends that aren't in your spot or haven't gone through it. They feel angry for us and they feel like we should be ripping our S's apart. There are days/moments that I'd like to do that. But ultimately, I want what's best for my D4 and I want her to be happy and have as much peace as possible through this very hard time in our lives. I cried yesterday thinking about how she has no idea how soon her life will be turned completely upside down.
Take care & have a good night! Hugs to you lwb.
