You posted on my thread asking if i thought i might be co-dependant, and yes, i think that may be the case with us. I am not happy being alone, and i understand if you also feel that same way, but part of this whole process is getting to that point where we can be happy on our own
Yeah, I understand that. I used to be okay on my own, but I'm now at the age where I very much want to settle down and establish roots. I'm old-fashioned in some ways, and I sort of feel like a failure for not being more established at my age. The Great Recession, which was kind enough to hit just as the W and I were engaged, really made it difficult to get established though. I'd like to be a father before I get much older, and I know the W wanted children too. We just weren't at a place financially where I felt it would be responsible. Now, I've got some real promising job leads, and things could be different... I hope she doesn't rush into anything with somebody else.

That is what will make us attractive to a new potential relationship whether it is with our wives or someone new. I know it's easy to say while typing it, but in reality it is a very hard thing to do. I think we have the coconuts to do it though, don't you?
Yes, it is definitely easier said than done. But I think we have the stones to do it. We're catches, dammit!
