Scott, I've told other LBSs this but it is frustrating to see posters here who have WASs that are better at this stuff than they are. Your WAW has this stuff down. Texting to let you know she was there. Asking a couple of questions and driving off. These are all actions you could learn from! It is how you should be with her. Short. Sweet. To the point. Business only.
Split Christmases are in your best interests. Kids already know what is going on so you don't have to keep the illusion for them.
I agree wholeheartedly with LH. There have been red flags of an OM all over this. Her push to move out being the biggest. It is hard to date your new man when you live with your own one. Be prepared for that other show to drop.
