Getting on with your ex (29)
baldydude: not sure what an fg is

yes I did mean girlfriend!
sure it beats sitting at home alone christmas day with a tin of beans
Have you ever been tempted to "hire" a stunning gf just for the couple of days
skyblue43: Only by the hour normally....
was just thinking out loud
baldydude: ffs if i could afford to "hire" a stunning gf for a few days, you can bet your bottom dollar it wont be on a weekend my ex nd kids are down
well it was just a stocking filler thought for you 
skyblue43: Only by the hour normally....
there's no resession for you then 
baldydude: Dear Santa..............
All I want for Christmas is a few hours with Tatianna from Estonia...all major credit cards accepted!
baldydude: i am fortunate enough that i get on very well with my ex and we never down the road of hate and bitterness, just over 4 years ago she moved to co clare with her bf nd has since had another child with him 3yrs ago and seems happy.
due to the distance when ever i go up to clare i would stay at their house and visa versa when they come down to cork they stay at my place, be it for a night, long weekend or even week(s) with the likes of xmas holidays etc, now including the bf nd kids that means i get an invasion of 8ppl, i;ve seen that as a problem or given it a second thought.
recently i got chatting to a gal on line, she has 2 kids of her own and apparently had a bad relationship ending with her ex, during one of our convo's xmas came up and i told her that this year the whole gang are coming down to cork to spend xmas nd new years here with me, she couldn't or didn't want to understand that and has since stopped chatting wit me and thats her choice no problem.
just curious tho how does the relationship a potential partner has with their ex's (good or bad) influence your decision to either pursue a relationship or walk away from it??

I get on well with my ex wife, this year it's her turn to have my son xmas day so il call out for the present opening in the morning and take him away for a few hours, she did the same last year, im sure both of us would rather not have to share like that but the reality is we are separated and to me that means our relationship has ended fully and cleanly, our time with our child is shared equally but not in each other's company
no way would i get involved with a woman that worked it as you do it screams out messy to me, even though im sure it works well for you i would see many issues with it, and i would not expect any woman to get involved with me if i worked it as you do either

i suppose in my situation the distance (its a 2 n half hour drive one way) has been a big influence on how my ex nd me have handled the situation and it has/is working for us, and i have say any woman i have been involved with over the last 7 years have not had an issue with it, tho have to add they all had children of their own and due to that were perhaps more open minded to my situ no way would i get involved with a woman that worked it as you do it screams out messy to me, even though im sure it works well for you i would see many issues with it, and i would not expect any woman to get involved with me if i worked it as you do either

the distance would have to be taken into account alright, for me i like xmas to be a family time and i would not consider my ex family anymore, but to each their own

as for spending time with my ex, its not like when she comes down to cork we fall into eachothers arms etc, its more like 2 mate's who happen to have a bunch of kids together and try to get on with life, so if you ever thought about getting involved with a single parent, i strongly suggest you open your mind as to what that may involve, this is by no means a dig at you, just some friendly advice
well that's where i do have some experience.... i was in a serious relationship with a single mom and know all about the ex being in the background... it's a tough situation... as i explained in post earlier in response to fifi...
and same to you baldy... ur a sound dude, and i wasn't having a dig at you either.. just stating how i (as a single guy) found/have found being involved with a single mother who's ex is still in the picture was a tough situation
