This "soul mate" exists only is his head right now.
The MOW is not really a viable possibility. She's rich, older, married and is NOT going to leave her husband to begin a life with someone who is all tangled up in emotional baggage and is no where near being financially solvent. I think she just got a charge out of being attractive to a younger man. I do think he is still emotionally attached to her, though. I don't know to what extent they were involved, whether it was physical or not. Christ, I can just imagine them mooning over each other. She's a nationally recognized poet and oh so sensitive and articulate. yikes!
He did say he was looking everywhere and anywhere for her. I believe yoga is where he's really concentrating his energies. He started working out since this whole mess started a year and a half ago. He goes to yoga 2 or 3 times a week, as well as to a cardio kick box class, and runs and does weights.
I've been working out for 20 years and it was like pulling teeth to get him to join me in anything, unless it was special and fun like the Hilly Hundred bike tour years ago, or an Endurance ride in North Carolina. I prepared and arranged everything and he reaps the benefits of all my planning and hard work.
I guess I'm sounding a little bitter now. I guess my resentment from doing it all for so many years is coming up to bite me in the ass now, just when I really need to be patient and forgiving.
