You sound so strong! I am glad you are where you are emotionally and it reinforces my notion that I should feel this good about not having my ex in my life. It is so awesome that you have a good man in your life. I wonder if you have standards for relationships that you didn't have in the past? I too got more help with our child after separation than I ever had when we were together. Although I forced much of that on her.
