Summary:
Coming to the end of my LTR (7+ years). Ex is moving out but not till end of Feb. How do I handle this when it comes to women.
Detail:
My ex is buying her own place but we still live together. All being well she will move out with our 2 year old son by the end of Feb. For obvious reasons I can't invite anyone back to mine until my ex has left.
I sealed the deal with the first from OKC (36 6/10) on our second date in the back of my car last week. She had to move back in with her parents so her place is not an option.
I had my first date with the other one (37 8/10) from Tinder earlier this week. Only managed to get to second base but the chemistry was good and she seems keen to meet again. She's divorced and lives with her teenage son.
So in both cases staying at their place/s is either not possible or tricky. Told both of them that I live alone. Perhaps I should have been honest but didn't want to muddy the waters at this early stage. So, I either need to come up with something plausible or find some way to string them along till the ex actually moves out.
The only idea I have come up with so far is to tell them that my ex's house purchase was delayed and she asked to move back in temporarily as her lease ran out on the place she was renting (and the owner wants to sell). I can bitch and whine that its a real imposition but I agreed for my son's sake so I don't appear as some pussy whipped beta.
Given the time of year both of the women in question are busy and I can reasonably hold off till after new year but at some point I'm going to need to confront the issue (or is that me just being weak).
As always your advice is most welcome.
And to those celebrating Xmas ... have a merry one!
