Separated from now ex in September, now sorting out access to children (he has finally found somewhere to live, been bunking in with DS).
Ex is insisting on 50/50 acess and we have been working out days over Xmas/NY etc.
I'm feeling really sad! he will have them the weekend before Xmas (will come to my mums with me on Xmas eve, spend Xmas day with my family) ex also has them week between Xmas and NY, and then for a week 12 - 18 January (Ex taking them on holiday suspect OW will also be there ). I know ex has every right to and is being reasonable etc but I realised I'm going to be so frigging lonely! i'm going to miss them so much! everyone else I know has DH's and DC's so will be spending time with them, so don't want to crash in, and I realised I have no single friends to hang out with.
Such a hard time of the year to get used to these access agreements. Especially weekend before Xmas - we do all our Xmas baking prep etc, and between xmas and NY go to beach a lot (it's summer where I live). I know I shouldn't complain - a lot of dad's are useless and I'm lucky to have an ex who is dependable and wants to spend time with the children, but I'm still a little sad. I'm dreading it! have some jobs to do round the house and trying to keep busy but still. Anyone else in the same boat?
