It sounds like he is a nice guy then, which is excellent to hear... Just don't beat yourself up too much if it takes you a while to work through your issues. If he is like you say, you guys will make it... don't just believe in him, more importantly believe in yourself! (((twilight)))

And, Skee, don't beat yourself up about it either. Leaving in such a situation is a really really hard thing to do, especially as there will always be some good things you can list about it... maybe if you do want out, just take baby steps = trying making a list of the pros and cons of the relationship, meet some new people and make new friends so you have people that know you separate from your partner etc etc. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk about it or anything
