Ready2Change - I have spent the last 6 months doing exactly that... think if doing something is the best thing for my daughter. But I have had a few backslides. Back in Early Nov when I learned my W had a BF. And then again last week when my daughter told me the BF was sleeping over.

Now I am so angry that my W, her Bf and my D3 will be spending a Merry Christmas together, while I am kicked to the curb. She bought a house with the money I gave her in settlement, she pays a large portion of her household expenses with the CS I give her... Now she so easily starts a new life and a new family with this Guy...

I feel so used and taken advantage of - especially now with Christmas.

But I did fight hard in my legal separation for joint physical and legal custody.... and nearly 50/50 parenting time.


Jeff - I hear your point. I should not be dating, or dating just because she is. But it's hard... I am so lonely. I live in a 3,100 sq ft house, with the temp around 60, 50 at night, with all of the lights off - all to save money, because so much goes to her that I am negative $1,000 per mo in cash flow since my 10% pay cut. But it makes no financial sense to sell the house now. I expect my pay to return in a year.
