This is so true. I think the thing we keep forgetting on this board is that our LD spouses aren't exactly happy with the current situation either. The worst case scenario isn't that we'll give up and decide to move on or even that our attempts at differentiation will cause our spouses to leave. The worst case scenario is if we do nothing and our spouses leave anyways.
