Broke up with my GF of several years a while back because I was a retard. Tried to work things out but she moved on pretty quickly. Only problem is I can't break contact with her because we have a kid together, so I have to talk to her a few times a week. She wasn't perfect but she was smoking hot and a pretty damn good homemaker. Looking for any words of encouragement from someone that's had to deal with any similar situations. I mainly started reading seddit and similar materials to learn where I went wrong, learn from my experience, and move forward, but every time I get myself in a positive state, it's ruined when I have to talk or deal with her, or listen to my 3yo talk about the fun times he's having without me.
