Soft play the only way

[Monodare1]

Hi guys

 

I mentioned before that I was looking to meet up with the ex to discuss Christmas plans regards our little boy, when am I getting him during the holidays etc. Well, she wasn't willing to meet up alone. The only way she will meet up is to have our son there. I felt that nothing constructive was happening over the telephone ir FaceTime as we just end up arguing, but as we have a son together, there are things wee need to discuss.

 

So, it seems that this coming weekend we are going to be taking our son to a large soft play area, local to me. To give our son his mum and dad in one place to play with him but also to allow us to have a much needed conversation about not clashing presents for him, who has him Christmas Day etc. does anyone have thoughts on this, is it the right thing to do?

I think it's good news. A neutral site always works best for everyone.

 

I'm struggling with the holidays coming as well as I'm in the middle of a divorce. I keep getting stuck in the 180, only to fail (it works), and then restart up again. I try to live in "right now", but that's hard to do for sure.

 

Don't know what your goal is, but hang in there.

Hi

 

My main goal isto make sure that The ex and I both have an understanding on how Christmas will go. I need to know when I'm having him during the holidays and also, I don't want the little fella having duplicate presents and being disapointed with having two of the same present. The only way to sort this out is to have a discussion with the ex so that for our son at least, Christmas runs smoothly.

 

When the ex and I have telephone discussions or facetime discussions, they just seem to degenerate into an argument. I'm hoping that if we are in a public place with our son there, we can have a civil discussion without the argument and resentment showing through.

 

I do not envisage us patchingup our differences etc and I do see us following thtough to divorce.
