I always prefer to keep my opinions to myself unless asked when something like this happens, but since you created a blog forum for people to comment, I'll take that as an invitation for leaving my opinion. Obviously with respect.
Intuition is one of my strengths. I has always been and it has always caused many "wow" moments with friends and family. I simply can see small things other miss.
When I first met your blog I rapidly felt that this separation would soon take place, and I knew this even before your post about polyamory. It was just very clear. When that post came out, the separation pattern was not created, it was accelerated. It was already there. I also think that deep inside yourself you already knew this would day would come. You just saw all your options being: (1) cheating (2) divorce (3) developing this new polyamory lifestyle. As most "average men" choose the first one, you had the courage to choose the last one and you did that in public. Men that take such attitude, have my respect.
Unfortunately that option didn't work out for you both. There is nothing to regret, you did your best Steve.
Lesson learned. Move on.
