[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 127795, member: 1991"] Karen, I'm really happy for you. I'm glad you're taking things slowly, too. My best friend is in this situation - her husband left before I even knew her, and I've known her for nearly 20 years. Her boyfriend has been in her life for over ten years, they are also taking things very slowly. They both still need to heal, there is no indication yet that they will marry or move in together for a while, but they often stay over at each other's places. She said to me, "It is wonderful to be finally learning that physical contact doesn't have to involve being hurt." She describes her ex as someone who "used his fists as foreplay." Time and gentle loving is healing a lot of wounds for her. Take your time. For his sake, for your sake and for easy child/difficult child's sake. You will know when the time is right. You're in no hurry now; enjoy your freedom and individuality. You submerged both for far too long. Marg [/QUOTE]
