Quote: I'm curious about something... did your mind ever wander to a place where you've wondered if your W would have been happier if you hadn't gotten back together? By coming back to the marriage, you've locked both of you in the prison of this R where it doesn't sound like either of you is very happy.
You know, Lil, the thought has crossed my mind a time or two. At the time of the D we were both at rock bottom with nowhere to go but up. Either up together, up with different partners, or up alone. For reasons I’ve already belabored, I chose up with W. Many times I’ve wondered if we both wouldn’t be happier if we had chosen a different option, if we wouldn’t have been happier in separate R’s with partners with libidos more in sync with our own.
But I try not to go there. I do love W and even discounting the moral issues, I think being with her is worth all of this.
