Hurt is not your W's exclusive domain, others can do that to you too, the difference is that she's a known(ish) quantity...

That must have been painful but brave. Go with your heart and mind.

When it does, don't forget the offer. She's your kids mother and they deserve someone who they can enjoy life with and and I/C will help her to recover herself and be there for them.

Correct me if I am wrong, you drive an RR, right? 3 teenagers on the back seat would each ride in sumptuous comfort. Was it more that you wanted to eat on your own?
