Why does this bother me?

The kids just came home from visiation talking about daddy's date tonight. We've been separated for not even 2 1/2 months and he's moved on. Why can't I?

I know, I know, he was the one who planned it so he was probably looking before he left. Still, it bothers me that he's dating and I'm nowhere near ready to date. On the plus side, this is the final nail. In my mind, we still had a marriage vow. Now we don't.

I can't say why you haven't moved on but your post speaks volumes.

"The kids just came home from visiation talking about daddy's date tonight", so your EX isn't there day to day. Seems to me you are taking the correct tact...You deal with the kids every day, you provide the stable life.. you have alot on your plate so to speak.

Your kids will benifit more from you staying stable and helping them through these next few months not the parent who is braggign to the kids about the next hot date they've got so I got to get you home or find someone to watch you guy's.

Jer.. who thinks any parent with kids should take their time adjusting the KIDS to this new situation. 2 1/2 months is a blink in the eye of what these kids are going to witness if their father takes so little notice.
