You don’t have to “make-up” for anything, especially for your ex wanting a divorce.
Even though I know that, and even though this life for my kids wasn't my decision, I do still feel a deep sense of guilt and need to be perfect for them at times. It pops especially at certain occasions like birthdays or Christmas. I know I need to let it go and give myself grace, but that sense of guilt and need to "make-up" is there at times.
One thing to think of here B....
You can have them in your life for a minute...
Or you can have them in your life for a lifetime....
It isn't about you making up for anything....
It's about you giving them a full enriched life, showing them character and molding them into well balanced adults....
Why the F would you feel guilty for doing that ??? : )
Perfection is un-obtainable...
It's showing them that when life kicks you in the huevos, you respond with dignity, honor, grace, and courage...
Pretty sure you are trying to do that.....

I'd swipe right on you Ginger - could see us hitting it off in real life - but the anonymous message board makes that challenging. Plus if we're being honest my young kids and the distance is probably a deal breaker.

So you're saying this guy isn't really, really, really, ridiculously good looking? ;-)
