No one has said that you must stay on the bridge of reconciliation. That is obviously a very personal decision. What is being said is that before you wander off to a new bridge that you finish up the life you are presently living. Entering a new relationship while still married is not the best way to begin a new journey.

Look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the present. It is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy future, without fear. {Henry Wadsworth Longfellow}
