In a bit of a different feel than my other posts. I have a sort of rhetorical question? Anyone out there have any encouraging words/experience for people who separate after a long relationship with a kid in the middle? Do anti-social nerds get another chance at "love"? On the kid side ... how do separated parents try to shield the kid so it keeps living a normal life when both parents separate amicably and both love the kid more than anything in the world? Curious to hear if any people have experience here. Asking .. ehm ... for a friend šŸ˜¢

If itā€™s ended amicably thatā€™s great ā€” continue to work together to provide two happy home lives. Mine was not amicable but still ended up with a well adjusted kiddo through a lot of effort. And thereā€™s always another chance at love. Sometimes I think we stay in awful situations because we convince ourselves that otherwise we wonā€™t find someone else ā€” or thinking itā€™ll be better to stay together for the kidā€”when the letting go was exactly the unlock we needed to find happiness. (at least for me)

Thanks a lot for the comment and response! Yes we have been at it for 5 years ping ponging between separation and staying together for the kid. But in the end ... if we are also unhappy the kid will end up unhappy. And we both love her so much and don't want this to happen. Not to mention ... as you get older and things don't improve you realize your happiness also matters and there may still be a chance out there for something else.

There is absolutely still an opportunity to find love again for you My neighbor is as needy as the come, tech need & war re-enactor, and his second marriage is leaps and bounds better than his first If you both find fulfilling new relationships, imagine what a wonderful example that will set for her!
