Being around ex is uncomfortable. No one would enjoy it. Don’t blame you for feeling weird
Good idea finding your own activities in the area. Good plan. Meetup. Gym. Hobby group. You definitely need your own circle
Is he thinking of filing for divorce? He doesn’t have to discuss it with her. He could just file. It’s a lot of work but I’d prefer divorce being finalized if possible

Thanks for the reassurance about the games (and for normalizing my awkward feelings around his ex). I find some of the games very loud and therefore anxiety producing.
Yeah, he is a devoted uncle! I feel like he doesn't realize how awesome it is. He's quite humble in a natural way.
He has hired a divorce lawyer and is in the process of working out a settlement / offer. I really do not know the language around it. It seems like it's more complicated than just filing for divorce. She won't even talk to him about it. I just know he may owe her $$, bc he makes more, and they were together a long time, but I feel he is doing the right thing.
