Sometimes I think I see some progress in X's behavior (in terms of him being more mature and showing an interest in D) but today was not one of those days.

I just do not think D is a priority to X. In one breath I hear that he is not up for this and that--then he is off on vacation, probably w/New Woman.

I find myself thinking some on what I would think if I were in New Woman's shoes. She is not OW because X was divorced when he met her. But does she wonder why X is going on vacation without his kid and without having vacation time WITH his kid?

Note to singles: It's a red flag if someone is willing to vacation with you but does not express any sort of desire to spend more time w/his or her kids.
