Starting Over (Again)

[g450]

I hear ya Cautious. But you are still very young.

Your Son will not be a child forever and one day you will find him moving out on his own.

This is the empty nest scenario that sparked the start of my own failed marriage and now me and my XW are older and alone. Would not wish that on anyone.

But to be honest, you have complete control over who your Son calls his Daddy. That would be your choice. As long as the family unit is a loving one then the child will benefit no matter who is called daddy. Just MHO.

And you also deserve to be happy. And Im not saying to rush out and grab the first guy you see. Im talking years and maybe a decade from now.

But do not fall into the trap of living only for your Son. It is not healthy for you or your offspring. Never say never Cautious. Just keep an open mind and an open heart.

In my situation I love my wife still dearly. But I have come to realize and appreciate how much better other women treat me as a man and show respect for me that my wife did not show me for years. I understand that my options are all wide open. But I would take my wife back in a heart beat and she knows it.

And those my dear are just some of the benefits of detaching as I am starting to learn.
