[quote=Anonymous]This was my scenario initially, my XH became easier to deal with and my life became calmer and so much better during the separation and divorce.  For the reasons you state, no longer having an extra person to clean up after, negative energy gone and better quality time with the kids.

That being said he started dating immediately, before he’d even moved out, and that was hard to navigate because he’d leave the kids during his time with them to go out on dates.  It was a challenging time and confusing for them. I’d say that’s where the issues in the future will come to the surface. Ultimately mine ended up remarrying a lovely woman who treated our kids well so we all lucked out there (him most of all).  Be prepared though- mine started family 2.0 almost immediately and his relationship with our kids is very superficial.  He never visited them at college and one moved to a different state two years ago after graduation and he’s never been to visit.  My kids have come to terms with it but it I’m disappointed for them.

It’s been almost ten years and he and I don’t have any relationship at all.  Kids are out of college and launched and I don’t think we’ve had any contact at all since maybe 2024?  There’s no hatred there, there’s just no feelings one way or another.  He’s just somebody that I used to know. [/quote]
