Hopeful,

I hear what you are saying about time eating up all of our time; too bad hind sight is 20/20. The unfortunate truth is that I think she would not stop her doctoral program and I would not encourage her to (at this point). People who care about us both have asked if she was going to postpone or stop her classes right now to work on us, but she has said no. I think she does not have time to even think about our M or R.

I know it sounds more attractive to keep on going now that we are is a bad spot. When the S first began we both said how we would have changed things significantly if we would have know the outcome. But when I said lets start over and work on this, she did not feel the same. The sitch was really fresh at this time though.

I have great hope for us, but don't know if this is just me being unrealistic or not. I am far away from me giving up any time in the near or far future.
