[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a single mom with a custody schedule like you describe. The truth is, it doesn't work for dating. In general, my ex has the kids 1 night a week and every other weekend--except when he doesn't. Our "family" comes first. We're coming up to bonus time. If ex has to work late, then I have the kids even if it's his night. If working late means he was supposed to take the kids at 5 but can't until 7, then I adjust. Makes it hard though if there are tickets to Caps game that night with someone I'm dating. As for the weekends, we have a schedule but we just don't seem to follow it much. It works for us. But not for dating. I gave up dating about a year ago. [/quote] If you want to date, you still can. Just schedule back up childcare and bill him when you have plans and he’s unavailable on his nights. He has PLENTY of time to date. Your ex probably doesn’t want you to date.[/quote]
