Thanks guys. Oddly enough, after this devastating year, and everything that has happened, I feel like right now, we probably have a closer and better relationship than we have had in the 12 years that we have been together. We had gotten so far away from each other and from ourselves for that matter, that it was like we were strangers. I feel very fortunate that we have both been willing to put the work into it, so that we can avoid divorce and separation at this point. If you had asked me two years ago if I would have stayed in a relationship where my spouse was cheating, I would have said hell no. But, I have found that it is so easy to judge other people, and to make predictions about what you would or would not do in a certain situation. But you never really know how you might respond until you are actually walking in those shoes.
