I've posted a couple of times about my exh.
This weeks development is that he has no intention of moving out of the houseshare he lives in at the moment into his own place as that wouldn't leave him with enough money to maintain his new lifestyle- holidays, nights out etc with the OW
This means he will never be able to have the kids overnight ever- it's in his tenancy that no one under 16 can be on the premises.
He's also told me that I don't get to rely on him for anything anymore.
I think his expectation that I just sit here on my own night after night, getting up early with the DC every day, never going anywhere or doing anything is more than unreasonable. So I've been thinking and have come up with the idea that he comes and stays at mine every other weekend and I can stay at his.
That way he gets to be a hands on dad something he keeps saying he wants to be, the kids get more time with him and I get a bit of a break and can do things without needing his help.
We have no family near by- nearest lives over an hour away so whenever I want to go out he's the only person I can ask to babysit.
Is it so crazy to think a house swap might work? I know it's far from ideal but at least it's better than the deal I have now I think
