[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a good friend, who is in her mid- to late thirties. She and her DH have been living apart for close to six years by now. He is in a state three hours away because his job is there, and he's doing really well. She moved with him originally, but found it stifling and missed the international vibe of DC. So she moved back when her old job offered to take her back. At the time the kids were six and two. They are still here with no plans to move back. She rents a large apartment and her parents live with her and the kids, and provide a pretty much 24/7 childcare coverage. Her DH visits every other weekend, or she visits him, or they travel together. They seem to be doing well. I think she secretly prefers this arrangement because it's less work for her, she has time to pursue hobbies and interest while grandma and grandpa watch the kids, she has the bed to herself, and her relationship with DH feels fresh. [/quote] DH here and this sounds like an ideal situation for me. Especially if we could have a DADT element too. My wife and I get along better when we see less of each other. [/quote]
