Hi! I'm Evelyn and I've been a nestie and bumpie for longer than I care to admit;) my husband and I are in the process of splitting up and I can't wait until it finally happens. We're both so over it and recently began to see other people, despite living together still. I guess at this point, we have an open-marriage...? It's all very complicated and unusual. Anyway, I'm have a blast dating again:) We set up perimeters and boundaries to keep our children's best interest in the forefront and it's going really well. I'm having tons of fun meeting new people, being social and enjoying the company of some very cool men. My STBX was much slower to get with the program, but has met someone he clicks with which is great! It's kinda awkward at times, but we're figuring it out:)
Re: Intro...
hi Evelyn - welcome
It sounds like you are (both) doing very well.
I am also still living with my StbEx while we organize finances and co parent our two boys (4&6) before I can purchase a new home (hopefully in the next few months as I'm ready to move on with my life).
Our marriage derailed fairly recently (this summer) so I'm no where near ready to date (and more often than not feel like I never will again!) but it is nice to hear your optimism!
