If you are a stepfamily but living apart...
Do you just do your own thing when you and your partner have your children? Or do you spend the time togetger as one family?
We don't live together and finding it increasingly difficult to balance our time. He has his two children the same weekends I have mine and it's a nightmare. When I do see him it's on his terms and his kids schedule so wondering if it's better to just not see him at all when his kids are there?
But then every other weekend we won't see each other so is that damaging to our relationship? Or is it more damaging to be bored and on the sideline and abiding by what his kids want to...
Like to know what works for others....
