Hello everyone. I am very sorry to have to do this, but my SO has said that I am changing into someone she no longer recognizes, and does not like that I am active on this board. I will be leaving, as I love her more than life itself. I am very sorry for all this, as I have found somewhere to vent, and found friends to talk to here, but I need to fix my relationship, and it is far more important to me than anything else. I will miss you all, and I leave with a heavy heart. You have all been so kind, well most of you, LOL and have given me much to think about and many things that have helped greatly. I will check in from time to time, just to give you updates, and to see how you all are doing, but for now, I must make my exit. With all respect and love,

Matt

Take care, Jeep. Remember love(admiration) + R E S P E C T(value) = Trust(belief) make for a healthy relationship. Good luck to you.

Matt,

Best of luck in doing what has to be done, I know you can & will do it. I dont think we posted/discussed together but agree that it is a shame to lose another mature male poster. Good Luck & God Bless.

It's a shame that you have to leave. It's always been good to have another (what's that again? ) real-life "mature male poster" here on the board. Your views, opinions and ideas will be missed by us all. Good luck with the relationship. You're doing the right thing if your partner doesn't like you posting here. After-all, real life relationships come first!

Keep your powder dry....

Taoist, I have tried a few times to e-mail you, but your profile does not allow it. LOL Yes, I have looked into it, and will continue to look into it.

Everyone else, I am very appreciative of your comments. I am saddened by this as well, as I feel that I am losing a very valuable resource, and several people that I trust, respect, and admire. Many of you have not always seen eye to eye with me, and some have made comment about my quick responses, but that has done little to change my respect, admiration, and trust in you. In fact for many it has improved it. I do look forward to posting questions, and comments on threads, and look at them every morning, and sometimes through out the day I stop in to check up on some of you. My SO and I have decided to take some time to sit and really think about our relationship, and decide if we want to continue it. We discussed my being on here, and she has said over and over that she doesn't have a problem, but then will follow up by saying that she wishes I hadn't done it, but understands why I want to continue. I am torn, but I feel that if I leave here for a bit, then maybe things will cool out on this front so we can figure out the rest. I know I will miss all of you, and miss the heated debates some of us have had. LOL I will be back, but when I do not know, and in what condition I do not know as well. Right now I am very scared of what this whole process means for us, and will keep you all posted on the progress. Peace and love to all of you.

Matt
