Ultimately, he has to make the decision that you and your D's are more important that living in this fantasy world. It's easy to drop responsibilities when someone else will take them over. If your D's aren't interested in speaking to him, it's probably better that he "didn't see her". They will make their own decisions in the future about how much contact to have with him, if any at all. They have that RIGHT, but it's a choice. Be sure that if you are not living together to protect yourself financially by filing a claim for child support with your local social services office. You want something to fall back on in case he decides to blow his money and not pay you (if he's paying you now). The reason he's offering you everything in the divorce is because he feels some sort of guilt - feels like he owes you some kind of consolation prize.

I think just keep doing the NC and work on GALing. The more you have going on in your life, the less you'll think about his. He's going to make a lot of mistakes right now and they'll just make you angry if you simmer on each and every one of them. Especially when they have no direct effect on you or your girls.
