This is the situation that happens on a regular basis. I need to know if it's normal or perhaps I'm just too emotionally stunted as he likes to put it.
For background we're divorcing, still living together whilst completing on the sale of the house, 5 weeks to go, thank fuck!
Stbxh is due to leave, 35-45 minutes before he leaves he starts with "now daddy's gotta go" "daddys going to work" "I'm going to miss you" "wish I could stay" lots of kisses and cuddles etc. And this gradually builds up until he leaves, by which time the dc are either hysterical or close to it. He then leaves me to console them. Had he just been relaxed about it, said goodbye and left dc wouldn't get so upset.
Other times dc are busy doing craft, watching a movie or whatever. He sits there pawing at them like above until they get upset. Wtf is wrong with him? Or I'm I being unfair?
