Why does liffe have to be so difficult when it can be so easy and carefree.
Who do you know who has an easy and carefree life? 'Cos if you know anyone like that, please find out their secret, since I want to know it too. But I suspect that "easy and carefree" is either a mask to be worn, or a temporary reprieve in between hurricanes. Yeah, I'm the "glass is _all the way_ empty, and leaking!" type.
You already know that it is a VERY VERY BAD IDEA to get the least bit involved with someone else at least as long as you are legally M, right? RIGHT?? It's that slippery slope that ends in serious doubt about whether you have any right to blame your spouse for doing the same thing you did (or similar). And...people of integrity don't participate in adultery, regardless of how hopeless or brain-dead the M might seem. Most of us got here because our spouses didn't see things that way.
I hope I don't seem too harsh, but I'm fading for the night, and maybe not editing well for "gentle and polite." Maybe not everyone will agree with me, but that's okay.
I wish you the very best in your sitch, Fixer. Wish I could help more.
Peace, Dawn
