Thought it would keep us close and allow us to work things out.


Then let them have that. It doesn't have to include you right now.

Tinman says- I have some things I need to do, is it okay if I pick the girls up later ?


Then you won't have to sit there drooling over her in her bikini all afternoon...with a pup tent in your trunks...which BTW, is kind of creepy

You can DB from across the world, or you can DB from 10 feet away. The bottom line should be that YOU want to be different, sharpen your relationship skills, and make better choices.

Her living close to you, can become another , in a long line, of excuses for not doing better....

I fixed that for you ^^^^


Look buddy...

You are treating this as if it was over already. I can tell you that it is far from over. Although if you don't back off, and give some space, it will move quicker than you would like.

You have a crap pile of things that you need to address , and end, before you can fully invest yourself into ANY relationship.

You don't need to say that, you just need to live that. No excuses for not doing it. Just do it.

Once your legal battles are over, then you look toward the Sun, and move forward with everything else.

You don't need her, to lead you, in going after custody of your girls, which BTW...you had with another woman...

Saavy ??


As far as the legal stuff.....

Do you have an appointed Guardian ????

CPS will not make those decisions, although most judges will take their opinion into a stronger consideration than your average Joe saying it. The same goes for a Guardian that is appointed for the children.

As far as my story ????

It's on here, you just have to dig a little to find it...
