I went over and she really tried to get me to go to bed with her and I wanted to, but all I could think about was what if one of our kids would come in and see me there and a month from now she would change her mind again. I don't want the kids to deal with anymore than they have to. I said as much as I would like to I didn't think it would be a good idea because of the reason I mentioned.
I think that's both legitimate and fair.

"She [knows] where she [is] in all of this"?? Isn't this the same person (reading back several posts) that was pushing you away just a few days back? Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your comment, but I have difficultly believing she knows what country she's in...let alone what county. That doesn't mean you need to cut her off, just be careful.

Yes. I couldn't have said it better myself. I've never known anyone injured by taking more time (but I sure know folks who've been hurt by rushing things).
With regard to my comments and soxfan's response, I am only pointing out that one may not know if there is an OP/PA in play or the significance (or lack thereof) in ML from the other person's perspective. I've known folks here who were devastated after ML with the idea that it was "meaningful", only to find out later that it ended up being more "meaningful" to them than it did to the WAS. If you can handle it, go for it by all means (I've gone cold turkey for over a year now and I don't recommend it). However, if doing it and then finding out later there is someone else would just about put you down for the count, give it some thought before you jump into the sack.
