The Separated Man

 This is a process, this whole separeted/divorced thing. I’m sure there’s a study somewhere that breaks it down scientifically. Some would likely say you go through the stages of death. Others would say it’s just that—a process.
Well, if you’re in that boat, you have your own version. It’s never easy to split from your mate, and particularly so if you have kids in the mix. There’s hurt, guilt, anger, etc. If you’ve read my blog with any regularity, you know that the kids in the mix is always a priority for me, whatever the dynamics.
But there’s also comfort in knowing you’re not the only one that went through it. And sometimes the web is the best place to find a diary of the process. That’s how I came upon Richard, otherwise known as the blogger, “The Separated Man.”:http://separatedman.blogware.com/blog
He brings his own story to the table, and does a good job of being open, honest and blunt about the emotions and trials he’s going through. He’s also in the minority, as he’s a single dad blogging about his experiences. Statiscally, separated/divorced dads are fewer in numbers than single moms, so it stands to reason that there’d be fewer of us blogging out there.
So, Richard becomes the latest member of the network of single/separated/divorced parents I’m trying to build. My ultimate goal is to link moms and dads in those situations through our blogs. Hope you’ll find The Separated Man a good addition.
And check out the blogroll on the main Parents Place site. Always open to new adds.
