Well no matter how emotionally divested I thought I was, I still wasn't ready for this one.
The she sent an email saying she's been seeing someone for several months and feels like it's time to take it to the next level. She will be introducing him to the kids and having him around more. (We agreed we would be careful about introducing bf and gf to the kids). He invited her on a short vacation during Thanksgiving holiday, she might go, so I might have the kids a few extra days.
My only response back was "Got it." I haven't been very verbose on any email lately but I'm not sure I have anything to say anyway.
This is first mention of another person. Anyway, I knew she was a lot further along on meeting and dating than I was. She checked out of the M long ago. I've only been out with friends but haven't dated anyone yet - I'll get there when I get there.
