I asked my ex husband to leave. @Owlunar. I couldn't handle one more day of him not participating in our family.  Meaning me and our son.  Didn't matter what I said or tried,  he wasn't  interested.  So out he went. 

It's hard living with a guy who expects you to cook and clean for him,  be emotionally and physically there when he needs,  and support him in all he does . But who doesn't reciprocate with anything. 

Having a 2 year old toddler  who deserved my undivided attention & should have had his father's too.  That was exhausting.  And then having to pick up after a 'man's who can't wash his own dishes or cook the family a meal. 

Nope.  Not for me. I figured it would be easier to just live on my own with my 2 year old,  than to have to look after 2 toddlers (one I was married to ).

I don't regret my decision at all. 

But I think enough time has passed that it's  time for me to find someone special again.  At nearing 50, I don't want to spend too much more time alone.
