Oops, our posts crossed.

We have an agreement we came to in April that said the separation was for three months (now approaching five) and that we'd leave the finances as they were during the separation. I've been as economical as I can manage and we're breaking even or slightly better than that in spite of sustaining two households. If we divorced or implemented a legal separation we'd have to split the house and I would not be able to stay in it. For as long as he's willing to maintain things as they are, I can stay, and he has been considerate about my spending money where I see fit.

I'd like to hear more about your take on the co-parenting thing if you have the time. The times I've brought things to him to ask for his advice or input he has not given any. I don't understand how I could make that more comfortable for him. If I can, I'd like to; the kids really need their dad.

Thank you again very much.
