Learning New Dating Skills

Today we discuss the skills necessary to make dating a positive, life changing, experience where we can practice being the person we want to be. Years ago when I was going through my divorce and rebuilding process I ran across an excellent book titled, The New Couple. I realized when reading this book that I did not have the relationship training, experience or knowledge needed to make a successful marriage. As I read I understood that that I had work to do within myself before I could enter into another relationship as a heathly confident self reliant person. Listen in to learn some new skills.

Moving from a separation to a divorce

QUESTION: My husband and I have been separated for almost 2 months. At first we agreed to not see anyone until we were sure of where our marriage was going. At first I wanted it to work out, but now that I have realized that he was the one that caused me to get into a depressive state, that he is not good for me. I am now enjoying life and discovering the real me.  What should I say to him about not seeing anyone and how do I tell him that it is over? I don’t think he can change.  Since our child was born I have not mattered in his life, only our son matters. We have been to 5 councilors and he still doesn’t do what they suggest.  I still love him but if we did get back together, will it just be the same thing over again? I don’t want that anymore. -Debra

Inappropriate behavior in front of children

Question: My husband and I were legally divorced in September of this year. I initiated the divorce because I was terminally unhappy; I have been in recovery from alcoholism for one year and four months and have settled into my new life and friends.

My question is this—my husband began dating a woman in August and she is now a constant figure in my child’s life.  We share joint custody (one week with me, one week with Dad) of our 8-year old daughter.  I have not been introduced to this woman and there have been times I’ve been at my husband’s new home and her car is there, but she’s nowhere to be seen.  Would it be out of place for me to ask my husband to introduce us?  I would like to know a little bit about the woman who is spending time with our daughter.  She really seems to like her, which I think is great. A couple of weeks ago, she came back from a weekend at the lake with her Dad and "reported" that she’d seen his Dad and this new woman naked.  Am I wrong to expect that they not openly have sexual relations while my daughter is with them?  I’ve accepted the ending of our marriage and the reality of this new relationship my ex-husband now has.  I’m simply concerned that it will have ill-effects on my daughter.
