I maintain my great relationship with them and try and get them through this as best I can. I sleep well at night knowing I am such a good father and have such a great relationship with my kids.
This is what I strive for and pray about every day. My kids are 19 and 21, but my IC told me I was wise to recognize that S and D can be very hard on adult children too. I have always been very close to them, and am confident I'll remain so. I sleep well at night too knowing that I am there for them. I wonder what H thinks about his R with his kids, but that's his dance, not mine.

I've felt like this all week! I'm early in this process, but as the end of our "Trial" 2 month separation comes near, I wonder if I can go on if he has come no closer to figuring out what he wants. I am just trying to focus on myself and MY future, and of course spending as much time as I can with my kids when time allows (they are away at college). I need to go through the process of healing myself and finding myself either married or not, so I am trying to not waste too much time dwelling on what I can't change. But this week was really, really tough for some reason.
