I said I felt like I was still committed to M but in a few months maybe I'll want to date someone else, maybe I won't. Right now, I don't.
My 2x4 for you -
1. You can not serve two masters. You are either going to work on this marriage or you aren't. Dating shouldn't be in your vocabulary if the goal is healing your marriage. Certainly not "right now', and not even "maybe".
2. If not moving out now is going back on your word - then how would you reconcile dating with "forsake all others" "better or worse", "til death do you part", etc? That is going back on your word. That is the ultimate going back on your word.
Don't waver, man. Take a position and hold it.
