You are doing the right thing but don't be his "bit on the side", he's only using you and you're agreeing to be used by sleeping with him!
Let him know he's welcome to see the kids whenever he wants to, that is his right. If he's already living with someone else then I would forget about him and certainly NOT sleep with him again! Make sure though that he pays maintenance for your children, he has a responsibility to you to do that.

Why on earth did you end up sleeping with each other if you argue all the time? How did that come about? Did you say to him during one of your arguments that you were refusing him contact with the kids? (Truth now!)
I think you two are acting like a pair of kids yourselves and really need to act like responsible adults for the sake of your kids!

well firstly you both need help. either you want to be together or you need to stay apart. You are both pulling on the heart strings and the situation still hits a raw nerve.Try and get marriage counselling together see your doctor he/she will advise but you need to come to some agreement for the children's sake.Prove him wrong by giving him access to the children. Marriage breakdown affects them. you need to keep your difference apart when children are present which is not easy. if living apart, then whether you like it or not, alternative weekends and access for tea at least one night in the week. Children need two parents. drop children off at a parents house as go between, so you dont have to see partner .Try not to ask the children was this said, was that said, ask them if they had a good time and leave it as that. It's going to be hard but stick at it, it will work. Either you are going to be a family unit. if not then you need to do what's best for children and not what you want and doing things to spite the other, Marriage breakdown is tough enough without using children like a pull me push you and you dont need to be used every three weeks, find out what this man in your life wants REALLY good luck and all the best
