Re: Staying together and both compromising... does it work??
Your right they are just clothes but at the same time he should understand the emotional impact that it will have on you. I am finding with my situation that I really don't think she understands the impact on me. She treats everyday like any other. She once said to me sorry if I seem cold. No there is no seem about it. She treats it like it's not this large very important thing. Complete detachment. It's just adds to the slap in the face she already gave me.
