Drew,

I understand your feelings on other meaningful relationships. It's hard to imagine putting yourself out there again. Especially when it's been determined that the normal people are staying at home. I'm lucky in that my kids are pretty accepting, although they don't meet many people I date. They already have a SM though so it makes it a little easier for me to get them past the "this isn't my dad" thing. Dad already broke those waters for me. (Bless him for SOMETHING. LOL)

I didn't have long term marriage (7 years) and have been divorced almost as long as I was married. I can understand how that makes it harder to get involved. In my case it's having been hurt more than once that's the problem.

It's also hard to know that when you start a relationship now it's with more than just the person you're dating. You also have some kind of relationship with their kids and x too. I've been lucky there. My x's wife and I get along great. Last night she invited me (along with the kids) to go out to dinner with her family for her son's b-day dinner. We had a good time and it was nice. In a way it makes it more difficult to find someone because if they are jealous of the relationship I have with my x and his wife it won't work. There are so many things to think about now that it almost makes a person's head hurt!

--------------------
When we were together, you said you'd die for me. Now, I think it's time you kept your promise.
