Thanks, Just Me. I appreciate your insights and encouragement. I hope I don't have to go down the road you did as far as a D in order to get things back together. I know you said it was for the best for you, and I'm glad for you for that. I just don't want to go through that - for the sake of us, our family, our friends, our business, etc.... Not my first choice. Too much pain for too many people versus if we can somehow piece this back together and only hurt ourselves, but learn from it and be better people because of it.
Sorry to hear about your situation but glad it appears to be hopeful now. Just remember, until you've been in the situation I'm in, you don't know what you would do... There are lots of people on this board who have partners who have had PA with OP, and they stuck in there, too. As Michele says, only YOU can decide where your limits are...
As far as our business, that is a hard one. At this point, I don't feel like I want to be with him as just a business partner if we aren't going to stay married and be a couple. It would just hurt too much. I've stated all of the reasons why in previous posts, so I won't go into it again here, but I just don't think I want to do that. That could change, but right now that's the way I feel. I think I would rather separate everything between us if necessary and then rebuild together if it would ever come to that. That feels like the right thing to do to me. But I don't even want to think about that right now. My hope and goal is for this all to work itself out...
Thanks again for your insights. Just keep some positive thoughts out there for me, okay?
