But he's so so good in bed. Not that easy to find, at this point, which I do appreciate when my kids are with their dad and I am not swamped at work and the dishes are done etc etc...  :wink: [/quote]

Your kids don't deserve this bullsh*t attitude of yours, where sex and flying airplanes and swinging a hammer is more important than them.  Can't you string him along as a friend with benefits occasionally until your kids are grown and then you can prioritize him all you want.  Or maybe let them live with their dad while you bang this awesome guy?  Just some thoughts.[/quote]

Sorry I think I’ve created confusion, or you’ve misunderstood. Those were things I found appealing about him initially. Now he’s bothering me with his complaint about not getting enough attention and I’m wondering what other moms have done if they’ve had a similar situation. I like him a lot but the kids are my life.

I get that you're wondering what other moms have done in a similar situation.  The thing is, you're not going to change him no matter what you do.  He's selfish and doesn't understand, even at his advanced age, that children come first.  So hopefully what some other moms have done is prioritized their kids over their BF no matter how otherwise great he seems to be if he doesn't understand this basic concept.  I get that you don't want to give him up, but truth hurts sometimes.[/quote]

Yes I 100% agree with you. Was hoping for some insight as how to stay connected to him while in my prime mom mode. But perhaps he will just drift away.
It’s weird because he was trying to be an almost stepdad for a while, wanted to be listed as emergency contact, came to soccer games, helped with homework, etc. It’s sort of like he crossed his arms and got fed up: 😤 and whiny and then checked out. Fair enough. I was hoping I could nurture the relationship so he felt content enough until I have more down time, while also Mom’ing. [/quote]
