In response to "Do They Ever Leave"

Hello, I am an OLD timer here....I don't post very often but your question struck a cord with me.

Do they ever leave.....the answer is that sometimes yes they do.

HOWEVER, I am very big on the saying Be Careful What You Wish For.

My MM left his exW (not necessarily FOR me mind you) and we got married. That was over 5 years ago now....

Keep in mind though, you never ever know someone until you are living with them and guess what....we are now divorcing. Not because of any EMAs just simply because he is a child that never grew up and I got tired of being his mommy...I would have never believed this was possible with the man I was involved with but you just don't know. I actually sypathize with his exW...how very sad is that.

So even though I am not saying that NONE of these things work out...I'm sure there are some that do...just be careful because no matter how much you love someone...something just were not meant to be forever.

Good Luck with whatever path you choose.

Key

WOW!!!! What a thread. I originally asked the question "do they ever leave". But I in NO WAY planned to marry MM. I do love him but I don't want to marry him. I'm just now getting a divorce. I'm just sick of the sneaking around. His W is hot on our trail and I don't want to have anyone hurt anymore. I've done enough dammage. MM is a great guy and I would love to have a relationship with him. I just bought a condo and it's only big enough for ME! Thanks. Lots of stuff to think about. My H changed terribley after we married. He changed more after our son was born. He's a great dad but a lousy H!
