[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] +1. Could’ve written this myself. I started dating when in house separated from ex and still legally married. He has cast me as the cheating ho that broke up our marriage. Our kids know the time line of dating my new husband and they have accepted him. They also got to witness their father hit me, spit on me, berate me, and other forms of abuse. They have much less respect for their father (oldest doesn’t see him anymore). Kids know I got out due to their father. Younger child is counting the days until he can live with me full time.[/quote]

Gloating that your kids have a poor relationship with their dad and that you feel no remorse for cheating is really not a good look. Sounds like you should have left your first marriage AND waited to start dating until you were divorced.  Both things can be true.[/quote]

Wow, you really lack empathy. I hope your black and white outlook serves you well. There is so much more nuance in what’s written above but you selfishly focus in on the only point that matters to you. I would take my dad cheating on my mom 50000 times over than my dad beating my mom. God. Who wouldn’t??? Obviously both aren’t great but life is messy and things happen. Teach your kids to be human and recognize how to manage adversity without it defining them.[/quote]
