Are these changes good for you? Does she reciprocate schedule changes to benefit your time with D2?
Scratch this, i see you answered it later

I know you said you saw the answer, but I just want to reiterate. One part about this where I am very lucky based on a lot of other sitchs I read, is with regards to D. We have a true 50/50 split and we both understand the importance of her having time with both of us. Especially, at this time, I feel like it would be extremely inappropriate to flex my nuts at all here. The schedule change is so she can go to the coast with her mom for her moms birthday. Considering the circumstances, even if this did cause me to be shorted a day or two; I see it as an appropriate compromise to make.

Is this crying just for her dad or your sitch too?

I have no idea really, and she didn’t mention why, but my guess is it was solely about her dad. I really don’t think she has emotional capacity to think about “us” right now. Maybe in time, this will get her thinking differently about it, but I don’t think yet.

Don't be too happy about this, they can still text each other sweet nothings and continue to an EA. (sorry, but just saying the truth.)

Thanks for the buzz kill! Hey, at least they’re not knocking naughties!

TBH, that comment was made kind of tongue and cheek.

Keep doing what you need to do for yourself.
Hang out with the guys when D2 is away.

That’s the plan. Have a BBQ on Sat which will be a nice break. Weather looks good, should be fun.

I fear though that you are putting the GAL thing on the backburner. I just have that feeling and I hope I am wrong.

You are right, but it was a sacrifice I needed to make. I had D almost every day for the week and a half following her dads passing. Things were busy, maybe frantic is a better word. We did do some fun things in there too however. Things are getting back to normal with that though. Like I said, I have a BBQ Sat which will be fun. Unfortunately, Sun they are showing rain, but I could use a day to work on the house anyways. Not quite GAL, but the unfortunate responsibilities of real life.

Have a great weekend. Its the May 2-4 weekend for us Canadians.

I will make sure to solute our neighbors to the north this weekend as I am enjoying a cold one!
