Hey OTW,

Ok I get it, that would make more sense if she is just thinking of herself. When she has the kids she can get help from you, your available, you help out.

When you have the kids she is free and has no interest in giving up that free time to spend time with you and the kids.

What can you do to change that dynamic?

I see how it would normally work, you meet a girl and you like her so you ask to spend more time with her, she agrees and there is an understanding that you are both working toward the same thing , to spend more time together. W your W you cant ask her because that is against DBing rules, so you live in limbo not knowing where you stand with here.

You don't like the co parenting R as it is right now , you want more. How you get there? Your thinking to just simply ask her? Yes or no then move on if no? I don't think you are really worried about loosing her as with the kids she will always be there. I think you are looking to move on and this is your way of telling her. Giving her the one last chance?
