I am glad you and I are able to have this discussion and I think it is wonderful that we both care so much about Ian that we have his best interests at heart, even if we are on opposite sides of the spectrum.

I could be wrong, but I get a sense of "if you are dating then you can't be a good parent and aren't being responsible" vibe here; while that certainly can be true and often is in many cases like this, I don't think it's the case here.
Absolutely not!!!
Going through the ordeal that Ian just survived is absolutely life changing and heartbreaking. Nobody deserves to be treated so cruely by the person they were supposed to spend the rest of their life with.
My only concern is that Ian is in way over his head and I don't feel that I am at liberty to share certain things that he and I spoke about in private.
There has to be a balance, that is my concern.
I do know how it feels to be lonley and at times desperate for some attention from the opposite sex.
I do understand the feelings of low self worth after having been rejected.
I do understand the feelings of being overwhelmed with the daily BS of life and the mundane crap and the kids constant needs.
K-Man, I am no stranger to those same feelings that Ian is dealing with.
But it is what we do with those feelings that helps us to either heal and move forward or makes us become even more "stuck".

There can be no testimony without a test. I am praying to go through this test and come out the other end with a new and better marriage then before.
