He: Michael, 41

Never married. We were together 14 years. Seperated 4 years ago.

Issues of dishonesty and betrayal led to death of the old relationship for her about three years ago, for me about three months ago.

About 4 months ago I started DBing and at least minimized the number of walls I'd been bouncing off.

Today she and I are actively working on building our friendship. She says its all she wants, and alternates between saying things like: "Its as far as I can see right now", and "Anything is possible" and "No way in hell will I ever live or sleep with you again."

I want a whole and healthy family with her. I want an intimate, committed relationship with her. I want us to live the love we both deserve. The love I believe we are both capable of creating and enjoying together.
