I am stuck thinking that all this DBing is really just proving to her that I can be the greatest friend a woman could ever have, even sticking by her while she does another man. WHAT A GREAT GUY!
YES. Rewrite that from a woman's point of view and that is exactly how I feel. I can even hear what must be going through WAH's mind: "Boy, when I'm ready, we're going to have the easiest, smoothest divorce in history! She's just swell!"
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
