Your simple geography can change
Your entire social life while you were married might have been dependent on your geographical location. You and the ex lived in the house within the good school district, near the park where all the parents like to meet up for playdates, near the shopping plaza where some of the parents grab lunch, and so on. The divorce may have made it such that you could no longer afford to live in that neighborhood. So now, when the texts come in, “We’re meeting at the park. Join us!” The park is now a 45-minute drive for you. It used to be a five-minute walk. But the whole group is in the old neighborhood, so you know it’s unreasonable to ask all of them to drive to you.
