I really can't offer anything substantive on dating.
I'm at a stage where I can't. And won't.
I'm just not ready.

We are temporarily co-habitating for the sake of our kids.
And that would create a scenario I am not ready to deal with yet.

OTOH, XW sees her OM in another state about once a month.
Nothing I can do about that really.
(Besides kicking her a$$ out) LOL.
She knows she can't see some OM "local" and remain under my roof.

You're going to have to decide about dating on your own.
You'll know when you are ready.
And DBing doesn't necessarily have to stop with dating.
Since you have to co-parent your kids, believing as you do,
you'll always be DBing, even when you reach the age of co-grandparenting your grand children.
That's why I asked, "How long you gonna hold your breath?"

Just be forwarned some WA's rejoice when their LBS dates and others freak out.
