My Ex wife left me in 2023 and I have 2 kids who are now 7 and 5. But who were only 2.5 and 5 at the time when she left. They’ve been starting to ask questions about why mommy and daddy don’t live in the same house. I sometimes struggle to not give them an emotional response.

Sometimes I’ll say that it was your mom’s choice to live somewhere else because she thought she would be happier. Other times I’ll say she made some hurtful decisions.

I don’t know what is right to say, all I know is that parts of this process, 3-4 years down the road: just never gets easier. I can never forgive someone who has hurt me so deeply or my children.
