My W is also a nice MLCer, and I couldn't agree more, it can be hard! How does one give up on a spouse that is still still partially in, still trying, still showing some signs of love?

I think it's both, guilt and genuine. Guilt, because they know they're not doing us right, (or in my case, not doing me at all!) and genuine because if it was all fake, we'd know. After all these years, ain't no way W or I could pull one over the other.

Hey, it is what it is. Best to accept it and live our life as we choose.

Get well soon, daring!
