Today’s topic: Is he still my husband? I do not understand why all my family and friends think that it is so very weird that my soon to be ex-husband and I are so cool now and the best of friends. We have been married for almost 16 years but separated for just over a year now. He lives down the street from me and our 2 kids with his girlfriend and her daughter. We spend more time together now than we did when we lived in the same house. He is a much better father to the kids, and a better friend to me. We often hook up for midday quickes, lunch, parties and other fun things. He is never late with child support and always gives me additional money when I need it. I see other men as well and he acts as though he is jealous and tells me I do not need another man, that he is my boyfriend. I do not care anything about his girlfriend, because he is still my husband and she knows it. I have spoken to her before about it. As far as I am concerned that is what she gets for dealing with a married man. Am I wrong?
