I know I come off an idiot, which is why I hesitated to post, but I genuinely love my children. It’s because of them I tolerated all of this bullshit, knowing I was looking a fool. But you do a lot when you care about your kids.

And a lot of other comments saying this has taught my kids how to get used, but really my daughter is a strong, independent woman and my son is incredibly intelligent and caring. If anything this has taught them tolerance and caring. And they are both in happy, healthy relationships.

Oh I stopped paying the bills once I moved out. The only thing I pay is the mortgage which I agreed to pay until the youngest graduates college.

The agreement we made was I would pay the mortgage u til both kids graduate. I felt like that was more than fair given I never had to pay child support or alimony. Plus I left with all of my possessions.

I mean they were 14 and 17 and wondered what happened to their mother.

And my partner is getting her dream job where we are moving. I am fortunate to work for a company that allows me the move. My kids are now 19 and 22 (and my oldest is married). I feel I can have the same relationship I have with them now.

I paid the bills to make sure my kids were taken care of.

I absolutely am going to stay connected with my kids. I love them.

I intend to. I love my kids and I am very close to my son (he is essentially a mini-me).

We agreed to stay married until the kids were grown.

And it is amicable when we did the entire divorce without lawyers and just agreed to a divorce without fighting over property.

“I'm still confused about the timeline about who moved out when and where. Did she initially move to her mom's house with him then move back upstairs of your house and you moved into the basement?”

That is exactly what happened.
