So, I got my D judgment. The date is almost exactly 2 years after XW moved out. It wasn't a very emotional thing for me, but it wasn't pleasant either. At least, it's done.

I had a rare argument by email with XW. She was asking for another schedule change and I pointed that she often asked for those and that the kids hadn't been on a regular schedule for some 6 months because of that. I said routine was important for them. She was very defensive and justified every schedule change as being required by some external factor. It proved my point that the kids schedule was last on the list of priorities, but I didn't tell her that. I did my best to keep things calm. It ended rather quicly, after maybe 6 emails. Still, it reminded me why I hate those arguments: I was affected for several days after this.

I've been seeing someone for 4 months now. It's very pleasant and we grow attached as time goes by. We sênt almost all my time without the kids together. She hasn't met them. I take it much slower than I did with the previous GF, putting no pressure on the relationship, not asking for official titles, not saying ILY. I speak with my actions and so does she.

I thought I'd give a little update since I just posted to mahhhty and Maybel. Hope everyone is well.
