cheated on, lied to, and now I am moving on

[ClingingToHope]

Well, my STBXW always asked me to stay home with the girls when they were sick. Last year, she tried to do that again but I said in October that she wanted to be the primary custodial parent and she can't order me to stay home, she has to ask.

So far this year, she's stayed home both days the girls missed school.

Take the compliments. I know I should compliment STBXW more -- but I can't bring myself to do it yet. There's still that feeling of "if I'm nice to her she'll think I'm OK with everything."
