[quote=Anonymous]My good friend was in your situation- the marriage wasn’t acrimonious, but the didn’t have romantic feelings either. Her husband wanted divorce, she did not, but after a few years of counseling they divorced. He’d been interested in someone but, supposedly, didn’t date her until they were separated. He married her about two years later. My friend has

Despite that all seeming fast, her kids were 7 and 10 when she separated and probably 8 and 11 when she divorced and they seem to be doing really well 5 years later. She was telling me her son was asking some questions about her relationship with her ex and I asked if her son harbors - or ever harbored - fantasies of them getting back together. She said her son is pretty pragmatic and also really likes his stepmom, and she thinks he’s in a good place.

They do their best to be civil, but my friend definitely gets very frustrated by her ex and I think more so now that they have to manage children and finances as divorced people. (My friend and her husband live a few blocks from each other - it helps the kids for routine, but does mean they all run in the same social circles to some degree.)[/quote]
