I read the article. I have to say I don't entirely agree with the premise. I will think it over some more.
Why do I want to be with someone who can do this to my son and I on a whim? It's illogical. I am focused on the 16 great years and not the past almost 3 years of shameless behavior. I also know that I am not entirely blameless in the breakup and I have tremendous guilt for my son living in a broken home. Granted it was not my choice to end the marriage. But I was raised by parents who had an awful divorce and I fear having to relive that and for my son to experience that. I guess that after the divorce is final I will shift my thinking to creating as good of a co-parenting situation as I can. It's the finality of it all that is weighing down on me.
