I agree....that statement pretty much defines the R.
Nobody should have to settle for someone who doesn't really want them.

Funny, I have been recalling the previous 8 years of our R and I can now see how exW was really unhappy with the fact that she married young and missed out of a big part of her life.

Maybe I really did not know her that well to begin with, she had a choice....to pull closer to me or further away...she choose her single friends lifestyle.

I am beginning to realize if it wasn't me it would of been somebody else she M that would be going through this.
