  • Doorstep, make sure you start a CSA case, even if you're doing private arrangement. Otherwise you will never see the CS if he doesn't do it.

    My sympathy.

    If I understand right you have already seperated. So calm down and wait for her call. It is preferable to allow her to discuss this issue away from her colleagues in a calm environment. Don't put pressure on her, it seems she wants to give you information, so let her talk and make notes.
  • Gratefulforhelp - I am going to do it through the csa, I think some lovely people somewhere told me to. (lol)

    Sassyblue thank you, I find I'm having the odd doubt about whether I'll do right by them.

    Of course you will, your are their Mother and you have already shown you are putting them first............which is more than can be said for their father.

    I for one think you are doing fab

    Hiya DH, glad to hear you're doing ok... working your way through just fine I reckon. The rest of us were probably gibbering wrecks at this stage of the breakup! Glad to see the DH Army is still supporting you too, although I'm a bit confused with BenjaG's post #593...:huh:

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:You've kept your sense of humour, which is an achievement in it'self.

    Now, is there anything you have always wanted to do, but never done because marriage and family stopped you?

    Hi DH, been away for a couple of days, so not been able to get on here, but glad to hear you're doing OK. It's great news about the mortgage, and I'm glad you're going through the CSA for your private arrangement - better safe than sorry. You're absolutely doing right by your kids, I'm sure they'll be fine when things settle down a little.

    The best revenge you can get is to live your life and be happy - so like grateful for help says, is there anything you've always wanted to do? Go out and do it! Be happy, live your life the way you want to, and keep your head held high. xx
