You are faced with choices based on your conflicting desires. I think the most basic of these choices is: "Am I going to act with integrity, or not?" Are you going to behave with honor for your wife, either by keeping your word about your marriage vows or by renegotiating them? Or are you going to try to weasel around, sneaking, lying, pretending? Or are you going to remain in limbo, wishing and resenting?
All of the choices you're faced with rest upon that one underlying choice: Do you have integrity, or not? |
Well, I obviously don't have total integrity or I would have asked this woman to leave me alone some time ago. But I also don't have a total lack of integrity either, or things would have progressed much further by now. So for now I'm in limbo, trying to lean toward integrity, and failing.
