Hey man, I know you are hurting and I'm sorry. the initial sting will pass after a few days and then you can really get down to DB'ng like crazy. See you can create all kinds of mystery through your GAL and don't for a second think that your W won't be interest, cause she will.

Sad as your sitch is, there was some good that has come out of it as you mention, (i.e. improved relationship with SS and strengthening relationship with the other kids, S and SD). Those are all positives. And they will only get better with time as the kids begin to contrast life with Dad vs. life with Mom.

Hang in there! Looking forward to you getting back to the boards after your self imposed hiatus.
