Hi...
I am the OW to a married man. It feels good to be able to say that in a safe space where I won't be judged for it. We have been together for years and we both prioritise our relationship within the confines of it's nature. If I'm being honest I could do this long term with him. 

However ours is a long distance relationship he was in the next city which gave me some form of safety because there was no risk of bumping into his family. Now he's a few countries away and I must say I'm struggling with how we will navigate this new dynamic.

Welcome to TS! You will find much support here! Please feel free to share! I'm sure there are others here who have also had to struggle with long distances!
