[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have one DS, age 4. DH and I have separate bedrooms and do separate things when DS is asleep. We eat all meals together. On weekends, we do a family activity day: museum, zoo, climbing gym, etc. and we alternate the other weekend day. DH are somewhat physically affectionate to each other in front of DS: [b]back oats, brief hugs.[/b] How does something like this play out long-term? So far DS hasn't asked any questions. We don't plan on getting a divorce or moving out until DS it's in his 20s or maybe not at all because we will be very old and tired by then.[/quote]

So you're friends in front of your kid.  What happens when he gets older and actually notices you don't seem to like each other much?  Have you tried to repair the marriage?  [/quote]

I didn't say we don't like each other much. He's a good dad and a good person. We've done a lot of couples counseling and individual counseling.[/quote]

What's the alternative? I see most 2nd marriages and it's a mess. You'll have to deal with steps and who knows what influences will be around your kids. Just look around at the 40 and over crowd.[/quote]

People who divorce don't always remarry. I won't. But I did not want to remain married to my spouse. I will never remarry ever again. There won't be "steps."[/quote]
