Hi gelman!

First of all, welcome to PC. I hope you get some good feedback from folks here.

IMO, I think she needs to take care of the relationship she is currently in now before beginning a deeper one with you. If she wishes to leave the man....then she needs to do this for herself and her children...not because the grass looks greener

Does that mean you shouldn't be there as her friend and hug buddy? Heck no....you can still keep that friendship going. But remember one thing....rebounding is a difficult thing and many times the relationship does not work long term. That's not to say that it couldn't....but I believe the odds are against it.

I would hate to see either of you hurt. I've always been a believer in finishing what one started first before moving on. I don't believe it's fair to the individual who is in the bad relationship and certainly not to the one who is looking to step in. In other words....take your time....watch....listen and take good care of you through all of this.

Wishing you well!
