Hope you feel better soon...
sorry if I stepped on your toes.
You didn't step on my toes, but you disrespected my time, which if I Recall, is a very big thing for you.
I think I asked about thoughts and if it was just me who was intolerant. So I guess, you answered my question. Which I guess would be a yes. :) Didn't mean to waste your time. It wasn't my intention.
How do we let our parents divorce influence who we date now in single parents land?
It isnt that I dont accept there are good situations with amicable divorces out there. I just dont know that I am capable of telling the difference between a situation like our parents had which I think wasnt good for everyone involved and the good situation where everyone is balanced and happy. Some of the things that make it unbalanced are hard to spot as an outsider and I would feel like an outsider. And what if I gave the benefit of the doubt, got it wrong and by then I am emotionally involved? I would be like those guys that were in love with my mom but couldnt get her to totally let go...

Like you, I was also in a different situation to the norm, but now-a-days there seem to be many more out of the norms that are turning norm.

It was harder, but I wouldn't want the relationship that my Dad ended up having with his third wife. Which was none at all. It was just too major extremes. One was all buddy buddy and one big huge happy family that seemed odd and the other one was suddenly
LOL! So (don't hit me) playing devils advocate..
I have that sort of relationship with my ex and we are NOT interested in getting back together.
See, I agree as far as birthday parties or school functions go. Again, maybe a BBQ or something simple. I think it's ok to have it that way with some athletic activities, but I would think that a schedule to an extent is pretty much set. I knew and my X knew right away when my kids slept, or what they wore or when they ate. After a few discussions, it was pretty clear. I didn't see a need to call or email every few minutes regarding something. To me ONE long email for the week should be sufficient. As far as the X calling, I think age depends. My oldest can dial my X's number and for my youngest,
