Talk to her friends and family if you already have an established relationship. If you have never spoken to them before, you may need to take extra time to establish a new dynamic. Always be respectful when you speak to anyone in her circle as it will reflect on you later. You can also be direct and open as to why you are talking to them; however, know that they may quickly tell her or pass their own judgement and refuse to help you. Don't lie about who you are. Be honest about everything because if she finds out that she, or anyone in her close circle, has been manipulated then you will have blown your chance. Her friends and family are her first line of defence so it is important to put your best foot forward whenever you speak to them. Don't be rude or awkward as this can quickly be exaggerated when they talk to her about you. If she is in a different social circle, find common ground to get your foot in the door. Endear yourself to the members so that you get invited to one of their activities or to help ease your transition into their circle. People can tell if you are trying to put on pretense. It will take a lot of energy to keep up a charade so don't even bother trying to manufacture yourself into someone you think her family or friends may think is good for her. She also won't appreciate that you think you have to go through such lengths to get to know her. Make sure you have established a comfortable dynamic where you know them well enough that it doesn't feel awkward to ask. You don't want to ask too early and have her family be defensive or her girlfriend think that you are making conversation with her because you like her, and have her feel embarrassed after you ask about her friend. You also don't want to ask a male friend and have it turn out to be her boyfriend. Say something nonchalant similar to, "So what's Kimmy's Story?" This keeps things ambiguous so it doesn't seem like you're asking for yourself.

You may have a lot of personal issues with your ex and your feelings remain valid, even after the relationship is over. However, now that you're separated, you need to take a pragmatic view that places your child above all else. Learn to forgive your ex from their transgressions, even if they haven't apologized. To thoroughly forgive them, you'll need to take a mental inventory of what makes you angry at your ex. Simply ignoring your feelings will not be a permanent solution as your anger will likely swell up again in the future when you're reminded of your differences. Do your best to see things from their perspective. Acknowledging your own faults may be difficult but can help you empathize. Considering aspects of their personality or history that may explain, if not justify, their behavior can help as well. This will make it easier to forgive. It may help to speak with them, separate from your children, to work out past issues that are still bothering you. However, forgiveness is a function that you have sole control over. If speaking with your ex will only flare up animosities, work through your anger on your own. You may have trouble separating your emotions from your custodial relationship with your ex. Try thinking of them as a colleague rather than a personal relationship with your 'business' being the care of your child. Speak professionally and stay focused on pragmatic goals. Make requests rather than demands or statements of fact. Include reasonable explanations with your requests. For example, instead of saying "I need you to take the kids on Thursday nights," ask "Would you be willing to take the kids on Thursday nights? My friends asked me to join a bowling league and I would like to do so." Practice active listening to demonstrate to your ex that you are hearing them, understanding their perspective, and respecting of their point of view. Ask clarifying questions and maintain a sincere body language when speaking with them to perform active listening. If needed, set boundaries to guide your communications, especially if you and your ex tend to argue. Communicating through text or email may keep you from getting caught up in personal emotions vs. chatting on the phone, for example. When you notice that your ex is going out of their way to provide excellent care for your children, tell them you appreciate it. This is a great way to build on positive aspects of your relationship and keep the focus on your children. Say things like "I hear you did a great job with the bake sale last week," or "I really appreciate you taking the kids to soccer practice." If you are going through a legal divorce, you will have to go through negotiations to determine the provision of financial and material childcare and your scheduled share of time with the children. Whether you're going through a legal separation procedure or not, it's good to try and work out terms in an honest and pragmatic fashion. The most essential considerations are schedules for custody and the provision of money for childcare. These issues can be extremely complex and you may need to involve a mediator or your own attorney to represent your interests. However, you should at least start with a personal conversation to determine your ex's expectations on these matters and express your own. With these most important issues, don't sign any kind of legally binding agreement until you've had a lawyer look over it and advise you on the consequences. Co-parenting successfully with an ex requires compromise from both parents. Try to stay flexible to keep things working well. You need to consider things like PTA meetings and driving the kids to afterschool activities like sports. Consider all aspects of your child's life and how the separation might affect them. You also need to consider how you'll enforce discipline and what kind of rules you'll apply to the kids. Prioritize consistency both in terms of before and after the separation and between your two households. If there are areas of serious disagreement or issues that a judge has ruled as requiring adjudication like alimony payments or visitation, leave these out of your personal conversations. If you can't resolve an issue, forcing a discussion about it will only cause unnecessary acrimony.
