Yes, the affair is over. My lover wanted commitment, and I wasn't prepared.
Why am I in this marriage despite the miserable state I am in? The answer is simple: I don't have the courage to walk away. I fear the unknown. So I chose to stick around in a bad situation, rather than take the plunge. I blame myself for this. Yet, I feel a compelling need to be happy. This is my dilemma. Is there a solution?
