It's interesting, dating after divorce. It's obviously nothing I've ever done before. Dating before kids was much more simple, less complicated and more self involved.
Today, dating with kids around is challenging to say the least but it does help keep priorities straight and more focused on the important stuff. Keeping the kids' (his and mine) needs and feelings in the very forefront of our minds and balancing our feelings and thoughts on this new love is quite a challenge but also a blessing.
Managing kid behaviors, outside influences and more intense priorities initiates some really interesting conversations that would never have transpired otherwise.
There are a lot of challenges when dating with kids, but challenges aren't necessarily bad, they are what help you grow. Growing individually and growing as a couple. I suppose the growth is somehow defining where this journey goes.
