[quote=Anonymous]OP. 
Our kids are 6 and 3. 
We both have good jobs here, a nice house, good schools etc. It would be NICE to move for the lower cost of living but I am content where we are so long as we can visit more than what he is wanting to. 
I think that is where my desire to move closer is coming from. IF we are closer it won't be such a long drive so maybe we can go more frequently. 
I am not an impulsive person at all and would never move without due dilligence and only if he wanted to, which he doesn't so that is the end of that conversation.

However, he fails to see how 1x per year is not enough when we see his every other month and stop there on the way to my parents as well.

The bridges have been a long time coming to be mended with my family. This is not a case of "I hate you" now "I love you" overnight at all. The past 3 years have been the true turning point where the divorce was finalized and a new normal began and has been maintained. Like I said, my 4 sisters were all in highschool when I was out getting married so we were never that close. NOw that they are getting married and even having kids, we have so much more in common than me being 25 while they were 15 year old twins, a 12 year old and an 8 year old.
