p.s.--i had a couple of long-distant relationships during my separation... these were perfect for me... i liked that i had someone special in my life, and that i was special to someone... but i didn't have to "deal" with all the everyday stuff that comes with a relationship when you are face-to-face... and having someone special made it so i didn't feel the need to go out a meet new people... do the singles scene... i liked the arrangement very much...

you know the song, "Brandy," by Looking Glass? it goes:

At night... when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
And loves a man... who's not around
She still can hear him say

She hears him say, "Brandy, you're a fine girl"
"What a good wife you would be"
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

it's like that... i was content to have the love of the object of my affection--from afar... and it seems your WW is content too... she is not going to suddenly tire of it and then come running back to you... what could end it is forcing their hand... but with you willingly supporting her, why should anything change for her? she's where she wants to be...
