Re: That was Then and This is Now
Detour:"I have no problem with a person questioning their sexuality it is when they cheat, lie, break vows, put all of their time and energy into that dual life while their spouse is left wondering, "what the heck," well, that is unacceptable. All of us deserve better. We were not put here to be anyone's safety net..."
You just put my thoughts into words.
This is exactly how it is.
And we can be someone's safety net only if it is the other way too...if we are not wrongly used by anybody.
Thank you Detour.
