Hi, I'm a dad of 2 kids working my way through the separation process. My wife and I are looking to separate amicably, but to continue under the same roof for a number of years while we enter a new relationship of being co-parents to our kids. We aren't arguing or fighting, but over the years it be came clear, to my wife first and then to me, that we fell out of love and weren't able to rekindle it over the years . We both see ourselves remaining on friendly terms. I'm hoping it stays that way, but the horror stories one hears are alarming.
After having more questions then answers following initial consult with a lawyer and realizing many things may be less clear, especially the tax and spousal support implications, I find myself in need of education. Hopefully over time I can also contribute, although if things goes as planned it sounds like I'll be more of an edge case. I have lots of questions around separate but under the same roof, but I'll hold those for separate posts while I do a bit of lurking and reading.
I somewhat expected to read a forum of everyone bashing their ex (understandable) but I was pleasantly surprised to see a number of different views that seem more balanced. Anyways, its great to meet you all, if under unfortunate circumstances.
