Hey someone's got a new handle! Or new id! I figured that was you! Lol.
We're doing great! Oldest is 14 and the youngest will be 11 tomorrow. They're doing very well in school, both on honor roll! And I don't even have to fight with them about homework! They've managed to grow past all the changes in our lives regarding the XH departing on his magic carpet ride. We live our lives together as a happy little unit. They still see him every other weekend. XH moved out of town which has made life SO MUCH EASIER. I can finally breathe again.
I've been in a relationship for 8 months now! Things are going very well between us. We have such similar back grounds and so much in common it's just unbelievable. His XW seems to have flown the MLC carpet too, but many years before mine did. All I can say is WOW. A solid and loving relationship the second time around is so different, but so wonderful in so many ways. Im finally experiencing what it's like to have someone that prioritizes a relationship and makes an effort on a daily basis letting me know Im loved and appreciated. I didn't realize just how much was missing from my marriage until I started this relationship. However I must say, you don't know how much emotional baggage you have until you get into a new relationship. Thank God this man is so kind, caring, loving and understanding enough to help me unpack and get rid of the luggage once and for all!
