SBH- So true! I have to look at it that way from now on. He chose this, not me. I'm just respecting HIS choice without disrespecting myself.

Rick- Thanks for taking the time to read and comment. He says he's not seeing anyone and it's just casual talking, so I'm not sure if I'd consider it OW in the picture. I think I do, though, because he won't agree to be separated without seeing others. That tells me where his mind is.

What you said about clinging to the bond is exactly right. I feel like I'm sacrificing it by not going along with it. But I need to realize that that's not what I'm doing. He isn't serious about wanting to be with me, and honestly I need to love myself more than I have been. I shouldn't share my body/mind (he very much enjoys talking with me) with him when I want us to be exclusive and he doesn't.
