DSs are 9 and 6. The elder knew dh and I have split and is fine about it. Dh and I are still living in the house together and are civil, even friendly.
Today I told ds2 that mammy has a boyfriend and would he like to see photos of him? He said yes, so I showed him and he smiled and said it's ok. I told DS1 too and he's fine about it. My new dp is in Iraq working as a trucker so I won't see him until May, that's when the rest of my family and friends will meet him. My sis has met him and thinks we're great together (which we are )
So, the thing I was dreading - telling dss - wasn't anywhere near as bad as I thought
