Thanks Maika! I know how you feel about selling the home and doing the physical separation. Was tough for me as well. I will say though, getting away from all of that stress has been a godsend. It's like night and day being out of the environment that had been my home for that year of in house S.

Brother, this statement hear tells me that you will be AWESOME in your new life. Your focus is exactly in the right place. Making a great home for you and the kids. While it does suck only having them 50% of the time, it does give you the benefit of getting your life built back up. If you can do that, then you can be an even better and stable dad for the kids. They can sense and will feed off your stability and happiness my friend.
Speaking from experience, my D and I have had a blast in our new home! Being able to do OUR thing w/o the constant tension STBX brought to things has been stellar. Ds happiness has helped fill the void left by STBX, which has been extremely helpful in aiding me in detaching.
You will get there brother. It just takes time and distance. I am sorry you're having to go through it though man. All you can do is keep your focus on you and your kids and keep moving forward. Hang in there and be strong bud! Will catch up on your posts man.
