Best of luck to you in your quest. May you find love eventually with someone you can make happy. Your plan to stay close to your children is a good one. When my parents got divorced, under pressure from my mother, my father moved 3000 miles away from me. It caused me a lot of distress. Children do need their dads around. I was bullied in school by a girl who knew how to fight. Her older brothers taught her. But I had no man or brother to teach me to fight so I got beat up every morning for 3 years. Also, a girl learns she is worthy and attractive as a female partly from having a dad around to reflect that to her. Boys learn how to be men from their fathers.
