Packing up and moving back to the old place is really not an option anymore. We could move back to the location, but our actual home has new owners. Her old job is gone, but it might be possible for her to get another job with the school. However, people have moved on, new people have come, so it is not the same great workplace it was when she left.

I cannot reconstruct what "was." Nor would it be a "solution." Our marriage was sexless back then, too. She would still have complaints and anger.

I don't know what compromises may or will be made. I feel I have compromised my sexuality, my essence, my integrity until there are just little glowing embers of the fire they used to represent.

Thanks for your thoughts. Keep 'em coming!
