Quoting jethro: To be honest, yesterday I was thinking that I wanted to just end it because it's so painful, I've already been through the ringer, and I still have got a long way to go with only minor hope for success.
Dear Jethro,
I hate to hear you so discouraged. You have so much going for the two of you! It's just that you are going through the roughest time you have ever faced together (and will ever face, I hope). But from an outsider's perspective, your situation does look so hopeful!
Has your W continued to read DR? I wonder how realistic her definition of lasting, committed love is? (does she watch a lot of chick flicks?). And does she know that love is a decision? I think she must know these things, because although she sounds somewhat tentative at times, she is doing all the right things to nurture your R now.
