This didnt belong in Divorce/Separation and because it is infidelity relalated, I didnt want to put it in New Beginnings either.
It seems that my secret wish is coming to pass in just a few weeks.
I got an email from XWH that he is moving about 30 minutes away! Currently he lives about 2 blocks from my house.
We've always lived relatively close by for the kids' convenience, but they are both adults (or near enough).
Add to that, he never stays in one place very long, moving every couple of years.
It'll be wonderful to have "my" neighborhood to myself. Hubby and I bought a home here about 5 years ago, so we're not going anywhere (knock on wood).
As for visitation with DS (and dropping off at school etc), because I already knew of his habit of moving around, I had it written into our divorce decree that HE is responsible for travel if he chooses to move from the current 5 mile radius of son's legal home (my home).
Happy Dance!!!!!

WoooooHoooooo!!! I am totally doing the boogie woogie with you.
My ex-douchebag moved this spring. From 4 miles away to 40 miles away. I totally get how liberating it feels to reclaim your neighborhood.
I am so happy for you!!! Congrats!! Enjoy your freedom!!
