Hi,
separated 20 months now, with a boy who is 4 in May. I have started counselling as I am struggling with certain aspects of separation, mainly feeling I am missing out on a proper family unit. hopefully it will start to help, as the marriage is over.
i see my son Monday’s, Tuesdays overnight and Friday afternoon overnight Till Saturday at 6.
he is happy, very settled, lives a good life.
we coparent it seems quite well. My ex is a great mum and I am a great dad – my relationship with him is fantastic.
But I can’t help but wonder am I missing out with not being with him 24/7? Is he missing out not having a sibling?
these are probably questions I will discuss with the counsellor – but does anyone have any advice for dealing with this guilt/missing kids?
i am sorry if this post seems a little different to some of the troubles and issues others are having, and may seem insignificant. But I am struggling and reaching out really!
