I haven't asked about the support he does/doesn't pay. He mentioned that he pays for their private education, and I know the cost of that particular school is high, and I am guessing her yearly salary is less than that tuition total. So, I'm sure he pays that.
Remember, I barely know him...I'm not going to ask for his financials and all the deets
just trying to piece this together. I'm speculating, troubleshooting.He did share more details about their split, or at least her personality and what caused them to call it quits. All his side of the story, obviously.
He opened up to me quite a bit this weekend. We spent all weekend together basically. I could really see myself getting involved with him so I'm hoping there's no major deal breaker lurking somewhere. I've sniffed out all the major ones. This kid thing, so far, doesn't seem to be indicating "character issues" on his part, or some big flaw in his parenting that could indicate that he'd not be a good partner, and isn't a good Dad.
He did tell me that he sees a therapist, which makes me feel good that he's working through his own issues, or at least trying-is self aware. The thought occurred to me that it could have been court ordered therapy so I asked how long he's seen the counselor, and he started going well before the separation, so...fwiw.
I try not to analyze the life out of every conversation we have, but this weekend was revealing in many ways. I think we are an awesome match, and I want to just keep my eyes open before I get too involved.
