[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My AP and I have been together, separated from our former spouses, for over 2 years now. We are very happy, but also aware that we didn't do the right thing in how we got started. We are careful to take care of our relationship since we both clearly see how our previous relationships went wrong due to lack of communication and a willingness not to work to ensure that we were happy. My ex-DH and I hadn't shared a bedroom or a bed for years before I met my AP and I was left working my a$$ off both professionally and with the kids with very little love or affection. I'm so much happier and I'm a far better Mom now. [b]Kids are late teens, thank goodness, so they've actually been quite understanding and have embraced AP. [/b]Luckily his 1 step-daughter is already a grown adult, though she's had more trouble with it than my kids did. I give them a lot of space and make sure they can work on their relationship without me around.

It isn't how I would choose things to happen and it's actually quite out of character for me, a person who has always followed all of the rules, but it just happened. We're a good team and I feel like being in our 50's makes us realize who we really are and who we want to be. We're actively happy everyday.[/quote]

It sounds like you don't really care, but FYI, I was that kid and I was only pretending to be okay with it.  When I got out of the house and more secure in my own adulthood, I was able to act on my true views.  Be prepared.[/quote]
