I have been suffering with anxiety and depression for about a year, medicated and dealing with it now but 7 months ago I was a mess a threw my boyfriend out with no warning. He reacted badly and it upset my daughter.
My ex and I have been talking for about a month now, discussing what went wrong, how we can avoid it happening again and that we are both still in love and want to make the relationship work.
I haven't mentioned him yet to my daughter but logistically he could be moving back in next week. We are both in our 40's so know what we are doing but my daughter is only 9. We think he should sleep on the sofa for a while so that my daughter can get used to him being back at home.
Should I try to arrange an hour date every other day till moving in day, spend lots of time with her reassuring her that we both love her and whilst can't guarantee a perfect future we are going to try our best.
