Just asking your advice, how do you deal with being a single parent? I mean if you share custody? It has its ups and downs... sometimes it's good to have time for yourself but sometimes it just sucks. I miss my kids like crazy.... of course the same goes of their mother, but then again I did not start cheating with bunch of other people so she made a choice, and stuck to it. Anyway... I miss my little guy who just got out of diapers... wearing little superman undies, running all over with his red hair... smiling and laughing hard.
I miss my little girl, who is so smart, I'm learning from her already... like the other day she explained to me, with a serious face, how it's OK when the blanket is a bit cold when she goes to sleep beause that's how blankets greet you before they get all warm and nice. One night my little guy was complaining about the blanket and she explained it to him as well... don't worry, its just saying hello
But yesterday she woke up all crying and I went there and she kept crying that she misses me so much, and she'd want to be with me and in my house permanently, and I said OK... but then she said and this is what killed me, "daddy the tears in my eyes can never dry, they will be there always". She said it in a way that totally broke my heart. I've never been in such emotional pain that I remember of.
But this is how it goes, and so many other parents deal with the same issues, how do you deal with it? We still have a bad relationship, very bad. It is as if nothing has ever changed in between. She is still extremely paranoid, disrespectful and simply is not truthful. But this is besides the point, how do you deal with missing your kids and your kids missing you? Do you jsut try to explain it every time or something else?
