Or when you get old or sick, will he be there physically, emotionally and financially? Have you made up your mind that you don't want children? Link to post Share on other sites

I hate to state the obvious but you are not going to beat the odds and end up together if he is not willing to discuss divorce with his wife.

Mistresses, kept women, concubines, etc. It's nothing new and you seem to tolerate it. Perhaps one day you'll grow tired of it and want a real partner, but unavailable people choose other unavailable people. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I know many will disagree with me, but I truly do love him. Well, if you’re happy, you’re happy. That’s all that matters. I would strongly recommend though that you stop hoping for him to divorce. The odds are not in your favor. And he even says that. What more can you ask for? That’s your evidence right there. ….. enjoy what you have and don’t hope for more. If you do, you’re gonna make yourself miserable. The truth is that he has already told you what he will and will not do. So he will get what he wants. Are you going to help him get what he wants to get? It’s all in your hands. Link to post Share on other sites

I’m curious how you got from this six months ago… to this… 10 hours ago, SideChick23 said: We’ve been very happy and stronger than ever. Six months ago you said if he ever came back you would ask him to leave his wife - and then you walked back that statement… I don’t know what you are trying to prove or to whom… For what it’s worth, based on your previous posts I don’t believe for one moment that you are contented with your position in life - despite the fact that you have hung around for seven years now… 2 Link to post Share on other sites
