Hi all -

Starting a new thread. For those who were following my last thread and giving advice, thank you.

Tonight went well. I stood my ground. Responded as little as possible. She eventually agreed.

She balked at a lot of it, went back and forth, tried to "problem solve" with me, and I stuck to the conditions. Topped it off by giving her a rental application for a nearby apartment.

She said, if it means that much to me, then she'll do it. Admitted to only a few dates. She's not giving up that much. Aked me why it mattered, and I told her she's still my wife for now, and I will not share her.

And the kicker was, she didn't want to lose my respect and friendship.

When she repeated this later, in a general context, I told her, I don't know what to tell you about that.

She wanted to chat more after that. We watched a little TV together, not too long, then I told her goodnight.

Goodnight all -
