4. A difficult situation

What comes through clearly to me is your love for your daughter. Whatever path you choose, I believe your daughter feels your love. Here are some maybes. Maybe you let her take most/half/some of the items from your house she wants? Maybe one day you will be able to move closer? Maybe you and her mother will work out a vacation sharing schedule? But above all, I believe that you will not lose the relationship, but rather it will change, and together you will manage that change. One encouragement, as difficult as this is on you, you are an adult & better able to deal with things than a child. That you are on here asking for help is proof. I'm sure you already are, but another word of encouragement is remember how difficult this must be on the child. Anything you can do to make it the best you can, will be helpful for you both. Believe in good friend. Best of luck to you.
