Thanks LNMW. Honestly, I think you are lucky to have had the realizations you have had at this age. I also think you must remember that you will have a link to your wife that your wife's friend does not: your daughter. You will have an edge there.

And since she said that she knows what you are doing, she nkows you're interested even if you are not saying so.

I guess when I said my H's feelings are his top priority, I was being pretty sarcastic. It seemed that HIS feeling, HIS moods, HIS ups and downs reigned in our house. I must say that when he left, I had a chance to concentrate on myself and my own emotions and it has felt good. So if your wife talks about her feelings, encourage this. She may feel she had enough of yours!

What kind of conversation(s) did you have with your wife when you realized you made a mistake?
