Has anyone had to move away from their SO to make things work? I came to this site broken, miserable, and with no hope for anything that resembled happiness in my future. I had to check out of steplife but the love between my H and I was still there. The blended family issues became bigger than us and nearly destroyed our marriage. I moved out and couldn't be happier. My H and I are finally on the same page. I have all of the romance and none of the work or problems.
