Michael McC --

You have helped me out tremendously. That is the answer I need to discover. Thank you. I guess it is what I thought all along.

I think I can be confident with the ring still on and I'm convinced that right now, taking it off would be done to motivate my wife instead of motivate me. Thus, I can't remove it and instead I just need to be proud of the committment I'm making to my marriage.

As for my situation, my W is still in her EA with the guy at work (even though he rudely dumped her for a 22-year old student he is now living with), as she sees him regularly throughout the week and they text and e-mail at night and on weekends.

We are living in the same house, but I'm in the guest room. She has mentioned "one of us moving out" but I'm guessing she wants it to be me. I have done the leg work and I know where to go to get the best rental terms and price. She knows this information, but isn't acting on it. Thus, I'm sticking around and trying to be happy, give her space, GAL, and act "As If."
