[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not officially divorced but legally separated for 8 years with an young adult DD, and I have no interest in marrying again. I am dating and I still find it hard to call my « friend » a « boyfriend ». I have no interest in living with someone again or being someone’s stepmom. I am not sure why people are so scared to be alone. [/quote]

I am long term separated, but not as long as you. Hiw come you stay separated instead of divorcing? Do you have any regrets?[/quote]

And does your "friend" have no issues with the fact you're separated but not divorced (and don't look like youre headed for divorce if you've been separated for 8 years)? Asking without snark or judgement, since you can't hear tone on a post. Just wondering how he feels about it and why you're not choosing to divorce. [/quote]

To answer your questions, I live in a place that is no fault divorce. I left my ex because he refused to stay on his meds, cheated, was abusive, and could not hold a job not to mention was a deadbeat dad. At the time, he was on disability and could ask me for spousal support since I was the breadwinner. I am finally passed the 6 years point, but lockdowns etc got in the way. It’s on my to-do-list! No regrets leaving him and raising my child on my own. We haven’t seen him in 8 years.

My new « friend » brings it up every once in awhile. I think he wants more from me. He is 10 years younger with a 12 DS. We will see.[/quote]
