How lovely to have two girls, the lights of your life, no doubt.
Life and especially relationships sure aren't 'cookie cutter' are they? It seems like you are doing all you can to make the best out of a difficult situation.
I feel like it took me so long to see my situation with my H clearly because of a few extenuating circumstances that carried huge ramifications if I just let go and didn't try all avenues. All avenues have been exhausted and I am letting go. I know this is my thread Lynn but feel free to share any coping mechanisms you are using. It is amazing what the human spirit can take. Do your girls maintain their contact with him? It is hard when the children see the distance but one tries to let them know it is not their fault.
Like I say there is no one else for either of us so it just is and there you have it. This year is 37 years of wedded "something" but I am not sure what to call it?!?!

There are polygamist marriages where everyone co-exists peacefully, but I refuse to have relations with him since I don't believe in this kind of family structure. I wish he would leave but he doesn't want to - it's such an impossible situation.
