[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a similar situation with an old HS friend I reconnected with. We are both divorced and co-parenting out respective children in cities nowhere near each other. Neither of us was even considering moving our children away from their other parent or moving away from their children. So yes, insurmountable logistics. [/quote]

That is temporary. Not insurmountable. Kids grow up. [/quote]

DP, not that PP you're responding to, but: If the kids are young, that PP and the man would have to wait quite a few years. With young kids, spread out in ages, it could take MANY years before that PP could move, or the man could move. And if you think, once they turn 18 they're adults, they go to college, empty nest time, etc. -- that's a big assumption. There can be many compelling reasons for parents to maintain the family home the kids grew up in. A need to keep residency in a particular state, a job that is paying for college tuition or whatever other training the over-18 kid is doing, and sometimes, the young adult's emotional needs. You cannot know what that PP is facing, how old her kids and his kids are, how long (10 years? 15? More?) they'd have to wait for those "kids to grow up." They both seem to be choosing their kids over their relationship and that is appropriate. It is not the rosy, romantic "it's not insurmountable if you love each other!" stuff that some here are telling the OP. But it's more realistic. [/quote]

People can wait 10-20 years for someone. They just have to wait to be together. It is not insurmountable. My kids are younger than 10. I could wait if it was the right person. I can also see them very occasionally a few times a year for 10 or more years and I’d be completely fine with it.[/quote]

The rose-colored glasses are strong with this one. [/quote]

LOL for real[/quote]
