In continuation of my previous comments, my lover also spends every third weekend with my daughter and I and every sixth weekend with just me all day. The reason for this arrangement is that I have custody of my daughter and she goes to her dad's every other weekend.
My lover's wife works every third weekend so we use those days as our "date days".
We do things together like shopping or movies and dinner.
Every Thursday night is mine as well. He took me to Florida (from cold Springfield, Ohio) just a year ago and we spent the weekend together at his friend's house.
Yes, sometimes, I do get a little lonely at night.
To counteract this, I came up with the idea of his wearing a shirt to bed at night and we exchange with a fresh shirt every week so I can have his smell next to me. He went to counseling and even his counselor (who is quite open minded) thought this to be a great idea. When my lover was sick with kidney problems just a few months ago, his wife called me and gave me information and allowed he and I to have visits and telephone calls and she even left their condo for awhile each time to allow it!
She knows of our love for one another and has been quite compromising.
He had talked about leaving her a few times before and so has she, but I assured him that it had to be BOTH their decision to end the marriage.
She is going to the same counselor as he is, and I have to give them both credit for the different aspects of our situation we are balancing.
She told the counselor just a week ago she'd decided to leave.
I'm just wondering if she will. I do love him immensely and would love to be with him exclusively.
One can never assume faithfulness if we did marry, but we have all taken the proper procedures to have open and honest communication.
I can thank him and his wife both for many reasons.
Him for loving me and his wife for allowing it.
