Now that you have walked away, have the reasons for walking away been justified?
Yes and they were at the time. And what were the reasons you walked away?
Controlling manipulative wife. As long as everything went her way, everything was a-ok in the marriage. Did you find the same problems in your new relationship that you had when you walked away from your old one?
No. Are you thinking of walking away from this relationship as well?
No. Are you still with the person you walked away with and is this the relationship you thought you were going to have?
Yes. Although one could say that anyone having an affair either emotional or physical has some issues...they would be right. My wife did have an MLC, and the karma burn was painful. However once past that, we are actually doing amazingly well.
I regret the pain, and I tried to mitigate it in my first wife. However, I in no way shape or form regret the decision to leave.
