Their primary residence about 3/4 a mile away with their mom. I have a great job, my health and alot of friends(female included) and family. Sometimes I miss my kids to the point where it makes me sad. Will time heal the pain or is there any other suggestions out there?

If they live less than a mile away will she not allow you some time with them when it is her week? If not maybe just telling how you miss them and would like to see them a hour or so a couple days a week. Time doesn't heal the pain, but it makes more where you can tolerate it. When they aren't with you try joining a club so this will keep you busy. I know how it feels to not be able to see a child you love. I have a grandson now that I can't see until we go through the courts. He lives here in the same town and I can't see him. I know it is hard, but I try not to think to much about the situation because that is when I start getting down about it. Hopefully your ex will work with you on this.

Unfortunately, this is one of the disadvantages of divorce. With each passing day the pain will ease a little bit more until the day comes whre this is bearable. At least youre close enough in case they ever need you. Also this is one of the primary reasons why couple actually get remarried too. Other than time, try keeping your mind distractd from the thoughts of the kids. Good luck

Yes time will heal the pain BUT since you see alot of your kids then just enjoy them and make the most of the times that you do have with them. Seek counseling and help if need be if you are having a problem getting past the pain. Good luck to you.

spend time with your kids... lots of it. my parents were divorced, my father recently passed away... i really cherish memories of stupid things we'd do... just walking through the mall or going to a hockey game or even just seeing him at my highschool softball games cheering for me.

its understandable that you miss your kids time will make it easier though. just be around for them as much as possible and let them know you are there for them when they need their dad and when they don't
