Finally got through a whole week without arguing with ex

1w ago·1 min read

Small win but wanted to celebrate it. We've been divorced 8 months now and things have been pretty tense. This week we only texted about logistics, kept it all business, no drama. She picked up the kids on time, I picked them up on time, no passive aggressive comments. My therapist says this is what co-parenting should look like and honestly it felt so much better. The kids noticed we seemed happier too.

Celebrate it man. Those weeks add up and your kids will notice the difference even if they don't say it out loud.

That's huge, man. Eight months in and finding that rhythm takes real work. Keeping it to logistics talk is honestly the sweet spot for co-parenting, sounds like you're nailing it.

A whole week clean is worth celebrating. With three kids and all the scheduling stuff, I know how easy it is for things to spiral. You're setting a solid example for your kids by keeping it professional.

That's huge honestly. Eight months and you're already finding your rhythm together. Takes a lot of maturity to get to that point for the kids' sake.

This is what we're trying to work toward. Can I ask what changed? Did you two just decide to focus on the kids or did something shift in how you communicate?
