I (34m) am struggling this morning thinking about my STBX (36f) eventually having another man around my kids. We’ve been married for 14 years and have 3 kids. We have been separated for just under a month, but have been mostly sleeping separately for almost a year before I moved out.

I’m just feeling like shit for trying to take care of myself by getting out of this relationship and leaving my kids with her half the time. She will eventually have another man that will be a big part of my kids life. It just sucks.
