Do any of you have moments where you miss your ex?

[Pinkchampagne]

Even though you may be sure you have made the right decision in leaving them, are there bits about your ex that you miss a bit?

That's good, Toothache!

How are you getting on? Not seen you on here for quite a while.
I seem to remember that your separation was around the same kind of time as mine, but I had to live with H for longer, so only moved out in May.

Hi Pinkchampagne. Yeah I remember you.

Are you getting along okay? I've got a new boyfriend now, been together for 3 months..... although, since a romantic trip in Paris a couple of weeks ago.... I'm having a school girl pregnancy scare! I'm such a twat.

Oops!

Great news that you have a new boyfriend, and one who takes you off for romantic weekends in Paris too...very nice!

I am getting on ok thanks, although I have found being a lone parent tougher than expected.

I have had two dates with a man who seems very nice, and am meant to be going out with him again tomorrow night!

I know... he is lovely... Although I'm definitely not ready to have his child! We have 5 between us and he has custody of his 3!

Way to go PC on the dating scene. Is he a potential???

Fingers crossed it will just be a scare & nothing else!

This bloke seems very nice, and is totally dfferent from my ex H, but as it is the first man I have been out with, other than ex H, in pushing 12 years, it almost feels bit strange in a way. I'm sure I will get used to it all soon enough though, and it is quite exciting to be doing all this dating thing again!

The only thing I potentially miss (and I don't really know cos we split 2 weeks before I knew I was pregnant) is the crazy pure parent love I could share with someone that I have for ds. I've been with my current partner since ds was about 11 months, but I still feel that its not quite the same (no matter what he or anyone says) than the love you feel for your own child.
I know ex was a bumhole but I know he would have went mad for his ds.

No, not in the slightest...he was a wnker when he was with me and remains a wnker as far as I can tell.
No idea why I put up with it for so long!

Now, Ds1's dad...another story...still have passing phases where I love him completely.
Not in one at the moment though!
