It’s also common sense, but in the heat of an unpleasant situation, level-headedness doesn’t always prevail. You have closed your door to toxic influences and married a wonderful partner. Your home is a haven of peace and love. You and she did build that, and you both know how blessed you are. I salute the sensible!
I guess that rules out my having an affair with you? (Miss Slippy is next to me laughing at what I wrote! We’re also very touched by what you wrote. Thank you very much, sister.)
