I do see a counselor (CSW/Therapist), generally twice a month last time two weeks ago, who suggests that given everything that has transpired and my W's demeanor/behavior since the sitch started, her recommendation is for me to move on.
What I find hard to understand is how that joke is "speaking low" of my wife? I'm making light of a ridiculous situation, that's really it. Maybe some find that in poor taste, I don't.
My W has had a tough life. She has done well for herself and children given the hand she was dealt and the way she played some of her cards. I respect her for that and it's one of the reasons why I married her.
If I had anything but love for my wife my actions would be totally different. I am not putting myself through this for the hell of it or because it's fun, I've been putting myself through it because I love my W and stepkids. If I were to cut bait and quit I would have a much easier road ahead of me with eligible ladies waiting in the wings should I choose that route, but since I love my W I leave the door open for her to reconsider.
I'll plead guilty for a slightly off color joke though ;-)
Thank you again keeping up with my sitch and feeding back I always appreciate your views and questions.
