Others on here have explored your relationship in quite some depth and I suppose what stands out to me is that you feel guilty for both ch---ing on BW and for not being able to give as much as you'd like to OW. How is this balancing out for you a few months on? And how will you feel if OW does want to explore a relationship with someone who can offer her more? Would you be happy for her to see both them and you, in the same way that you are maintaining a relationship with both her and BW?

Your name on here indicates that you maybe haven't been happy for a while but are happy again. Is this how you are feeling now you have met OW.....?

I think Emily poses some great reflective questions. I'm glad things are settled back into your normal routine. Holidays and work can be hectic. How are things going for you now?
