How often do you see one another when seperated? kathlyn2: I am just wondering what the standard protocal for seeing each other during seperation. My ex and I are talking in terms of wanting to be together but after a year of back and forth we both needed a break. We have a three year old so we see each other when exchanging our daughter, but how often do we see each other? Should we be seeing each other once a week alone? I dont know how to proceed. He said we needed space to clear our heads, but that our goal is to be together.
Re: How often do you see one another when seperated? audi_driver: I have seen my wife five times since being seperated on December 4th.
Once to pick up my daughter from her job.
Once to get my hair cut and we went out to dinner.
Once to go to counseling
Once at court...
Once to pick my daughter up on a Friday.
Other than that, I know she goes to the diner when i meet her parents to pick up and drop off Nicole. My daughter told me.
Re: How often do you see one another when seperated? kathlyn2: Are you trying to reconcile? That is our goal.
Re: How often do you see one another when seperated? jillieb44: I'm not trying to reconcile.
I see my ex MAYBE at pick up/drop offs. Usually the kids go on their own. Our contact is better via e-mail, as the ex is a poor communicator.
If you're trying to reconcile then I'd think at least a few times a month you should have a 'date.' Get a babysitter and get out alone.

Re: How often do you see one another when seperated? shockedandamazed: I had to see mine a total of five times in four months. I had everything planned to where once he had all of his possessions out of the house and once that was done, he will never set foot in the house ever again.
If he really needed something, I would throw it onto the front porch so I didn't have to open the door to him. All conversation was through e-mail, never on the phone. Except at the end, when he was whining because he couldn't make it to the house on the day we decided so he could get all of the other crap I had pushed out onto the driveway. My response: 'Gee, that's too bad, I hope it's still there whenever you get around to it, because I am not planning on being home until tomorrow.' When I returned home, it was gone.
