My friend, you have my utmost respect for standing for your marriage through all of this. Also the mature way you seem to handle this as evidenced by your posts sets a good example for all of us. I'm relatively early on in this whole MLC hell and cannot fathom hanging on for years as even months seems like an eternity to me. I will always love my W as well but wonder how long it will be before it becomes detrimental to my mental and even physical health.
Other than your faith, what has carried you through all these years? Seeing someone you love with someone else is hearth-wrenching, especially when you've been together this long (I've also been married 18 years). I'll pray for us both as we navigate these terrible currents.
