What seems to be getting lost in all of this is exactly what you're referring to Ian - that this is simply a fun relationship with mutual attraction and interest on each person's part - that's it. Not once have you ever said or implied that she is "the one" or that she is your "soulmate" or professed undying love for her, blah blah blah. You have in fact specifically addressed WITH HER that it is not those things, not now at least and for the foreseeable future. It seems to be getting forgotten that not every relationship is supposed to result in a lifelong commitment and not every girl or lady friend becomes your wife.

For the life of me I cannot understand why some folks are having a problem - to the point of questioning your morals and judging you - with you having a CASUAL relationship after the end of your marriage (while continuing to make your children your top priority). You've been pretty clear about all of this and it seems pretty simple and straightforward to me.

I'm so bewildered by it that it actually got me up out of lurker mode for a few days to actually post about it...
