Still through all this, I can see good in her, and I can see things that I have always wanted in my life from her.
Those feelings were unique to her. I'm almost 50.... This is the only person I've ever been in love with, or wished for. I've never experienced "the one who got away".

Neither had I but at 54 (& before) I realized he was destroying me in so many ways mentally & financially. I had enough after 33 years & at 54 I walked out & moved 2100 miles away (my daughter was already grown & had moved out of state too. I had never even lived on my own before that.
16 Years later I have never been so happy to have left in my life. He would have ended up totally destroying me. Just don't be unwise letting emotions control you. Make sure you include logic into your decision making or your kids will not see it as wisdom you are basing your decision making on
