Moving away from the abstract back into reality...
After coming across X while swiping on Tinder last night, my friend went on a discovery mission to see what he’s been up to on social media lately.
The month out of state he just had was an adventure holiday with OW. My friend said WTF! How do they afford all the stuff they do! Jetskiing, golfing, skydiving, fishing, biking, festivals, holidays, hikes, glamping. WTAF! He is never growing up. So all that stuff was more important than being here for S3’s birthday.
His Tinder profile had been active in the last seven days. It was refreshed with new photos from the last time I saw it. One featured yet another new motorbike different to the one he had while we were married. His finances must be under some serious strain. We never took such a lengthy or expensive holiday together.
Of course it does beg the question why is he back on Tinder if he’s investing so much time and money into his relationship with OW!
He also responded to my lawyer about the parenting plan saying it all looked reasonable and fair (yay!) except the arrangement for S3’s birthday. The first draft gave the non-custodial parent on that day four hours of visitation after school. Then I realised that me being the main custodial parent would mean I’d very rarely get those hours. I suggested alternating years but he is right, that’s not a satisfying solution either.
Does anyone have suggestions on an alternative arrangement?
