Date with girl from Kazakhstan this past Saturday.

Driving his ex-MIL and ex-FIL around? Seems to me that is running errands.
From his comments it seems his ex is using any leverage she can to let him run for her, in name of the kids.
At the same time she is filling the kids with stories of how bad their father is.

I know I am hard on Greg, but I doubt it is unfair. He should understand that a man spending more time answering call from his ex about his children as dating has little chance of success.
Children will get older and wiser, they will not believe the stories about how bad their dad is forever. But if their dad is the doormat, it will take longer as the behaviour of the ex of using him for every time they need to wipe their ass will transfer to the kids.

Just in last couple of days there was regular feature column (weekly I think) of woman who gives relationship advice, particularly to divorced couples and men/women who are involved with a previously divorced person.  Some good advice about how to interact with your new person's ex, etc.

In this last column a woman tells that she has a fiance, who is divorced.  His ex had/has custody of their two children and moved to another state.  Just now, she has moved back to the city where the man lives.  And, until she can find/afford something else, the man is allowing her and children to live in his house with him.

His new woman does not live with him currently.

So this new woman is of course going bonkers about this.
And the relationship woman agrees with her.  Suggests she check out where this ex wife is sleeping in the house, etc.

But I disagree.  If the two ex's wanted to have sex, they could find a place to do it even if they weren't living under the same roof.

Again, just as with Greg's situation, I think the main point is to make sure the children are safe and sound; and the fact that the ex also benefits is just a side product.
