Hi HP, good to hear from you again, and sorry you've been having a rough time. Can I ask you a little more about the Florida move and the impact on your S and his time with you both? What are the custody arrangements now? Who spends what time with S, and how would this change with the move? Also, what's the travelling distance if you move?

My HXW suddenly decided to move 2 hours away from him, which had a big impact on time he spent with S. He was upset about this as he previously spent some week nights with him and this had to stop. So, depending on your answers to the above and the impact on your W's time with S - I can understand how concerned she may be.

I can understand you wanting a fresh start, but I think you'll need to get to a point where you have a clearly defined plan from your negotiations - not a 'gentleman's agreement' and this may or may not be possible, given concerns your W is raising.

Good for you with the healthier lifestyle - you may have had a dip, but it didn't take long for you to pick yourself up again - that's the main thing.

Take care HP x
