Surviving is like a dried up lake....its stagnant. Why do you think I kept coming back here?
I would of course disagree. The folks over in Surviving simply don't post as much because they are a bit busy with their lives as they have had the end game occur. You get a lot of straight up advice over there just as you do here, just a different tone as the folks over there have moved through the divorce process which is what I think you need help with.

I agree, Things are really back in perspective now. I had a couple of good email exchanges. Ian, I did speak with her regarding us both being comfortable enough to call about taking the kids for whatever reason.
She also called this morning regarding my son, I guess he is running a fever. She wanted to know if I could possible take Friday of work in case he is sick again. I politely told her I couldn't. With the race in town I'm just way too busy.
Our conversation was nice, but ya know it doesn't really mean much anymore. I want to be nice for the sake of the kids and to just make things as easy (if there is such a thing) as possible. I know I need to keep my guard up as for as respect and control goes with her.
Anyway, I feel so much better, a lot less tense when it comes to dealing with her. I'm no longer focused on reconciling anymore. There is really no need to give it much thought. IF and that's a big IF it ever happens I deal with it then.
Next topic at hand. Ian your right again.(head swelling) I have indeed had trouble mixing up casual dating with a relationship. I have met a very attractive single mother with a daughter the same age as mine. It seems that we have a LOT in common, anyway we chatted for a few last night, it was fun. I could see myself asking her out in the near future.
