I don't see Edith but the mafia wife thing I can see. I have a lot of that loyalty in me too -it is part of what gets me in trouble in LTR's. I would like to think that I am not so stupid as to misplace my loyalty in an R with someone untrustworthy but yet, I have already done that, more than once, in different ways. If I think about it I have, in part, selected men who are also loyal. My ex was loyal to me, a child in many ways, emotionally tore me down but would have been content to continue as long as I stayed around for it. H is also loyal to me and seems content to have me hang out despite the fact that he displays little sexual attraction to me and that we share a roomate R. Your H would have done the same except that you pushed the envelope too far and made him and you choose. What is about me (or you) that seems to inspire that loyalty and what is it that causes us to be loyal to our detriment? Watch this with GP and anyone else you are with. It is ok to have fun but don't get too caught up to recognize if the fun is over and you need to join another party. Do what is good for MJ.
