llewis,

I'm with Dude ... this seems like an odd spot and stance for someone to use to make their first post after 10 months of lurking.

Maybe you could offer some insight into your situation???

Sorry, but I've learned to be naturally skeptical of people.

What’s there to be skeptical of? Either I called it right or I didn’t. Only Dude can answer that.

Dude,

Do you have kids with this woman?

Sam Kinison had an observation about his ex wives. He had no kids with any of them and was happy that they were just going to have to get along as best they could without him. He said that he hoped they were trolling through alley garbage bins looking for discared chicken bones to eat.

He's great to listen to if you've ever been heartbroken.

That being said, forget this woman if you have no kids with her. Trust me, the women in their 30s are awesome. They are tons more mature and much better to deal with and date.

I understand that a part of you still loves her, but that will go away in time and it will REALLY go away once you see how good you could really have it with someone else.

Cliches are cliches, but there is truth to them and the biggest truth for all of us betrayed is that there are plenty of fish in the sea.

She moved away with the kids April 08. I contested it and got a lot more time with my kids. She's unhappy that I want to stay involved in their lives and don't settle for being an "every other weekend" dad.

Never going to happen.

I think what we are saying is, "GREAT CALL", why wait 10 months and on me to make such a great call? You seem so insightful, why not help others out before now and/or share your story. THAT IS WHERE SKEPTICISM COMES IN. Its not bad, just weird you linger for 10 months, then jump out there with comments as though you can "read between the lines" or know me somehow(which it appears you do)..Dude

Dude,

I don't remember your FWW's MB username, but I think I remember her posting here for awhile, so she is aware of these forums.

Could llewis be her, or one of her friends trying to manipulate you?

Just something that popped into my mind ...
