m4ff3w,

I wish you the best in your situation. I was in one like it several years ago (thankfully no children were in that picture). It's tough to know what to do. Whatever you do, listen to your gut, and don't let other people make you feel like you're crazy.

So, a thread was made asking for advice, then an OVERWHELMING amount of people in similiar situations were brought forth and what they did, and then the exact opposite of what was suggested was done.

That's because most people aren't actually asking for advice, they are asking for someone to confirm what they are already planning on doing.

No offense to the OP.

Actually, no. And no offense taken. I was wondering if anyone had or knew anyone that had successfully cohabitation after divorce.

There were instances of people saying yes.

Asking for advice doesn't necessarily mean the majority opinion will be taken, but those views will certainly be measured and applied against the individual's own situation.

I actually thought about saying the exact same thing on this thread. Are we related?

And I'm pointing out that I view it as irrational to consistently do it, especially when the advice is grounded in real world examples. But I digress, clearly you are in it to learn the hard way, one way or another. As I've said before, I truly do hope it works out for you.
