The 200 mile distance could be quite an issue and restrict how often you see the kids. It is a tough decision to make. Have you looked at possibly dating again or joining some clubs to meet new people perhaps?
Hi all.
Dating is a no until I have my own place (why would a woman want to date a man still living in the same house with his ex). I did try a few clubs but for whatever reason just didn't click with the people.
I am just worried I will become a bitter man down here. All joint man friends have kind of gone quiet as wife is friends with their wives. So I am out of that group.
And since she filed for divorce the only friends who have regularly asked how I am are the ones fro. My home town. Very little support down here.
I fear staying here will send me to a dark place when I don't have the kids. I get almost get panic attacks when I look at what I might be able to afford if we have to sell the house (or worse if she gets the house and I have to move out)
