It is all very good advice. I'll definitely pay for the home inspector, the one we used for our townhome was great. There are 3 levels of units in the condos. I would not get a top floor, so no worries about a roof. I think I'll find out this week if I can prequalify for a mortgage this week.
So. I went to the party, had a fantastic time. exNG was there with his D. When she saw me she just ran over an hugged me so hard for so long. It took everything I had to hold back my tears. Her and I picked up where we left off. I was her go-to adult. I brushed her hair when she got out of the pool, found her towel for her, she shared her food with me. She hugged me so hard goodbye and she says to me "Please say hi to D9 for me.
As for exNG, I'm still processing those feelings. The dams of tears broke as I got into my car to come back home today. It was just so weird. He just didn't know what to do basically. I can get into the details, but I'm not going to.
As I spent time with his friends, well, my friends also now, and spending time with his little girl, I realize there were many gifts to be taken from this relationship even if ended the way it did.
