Marching to the beat of a different mandolin

I understand about not knowing and what ultimately will happen being in limbo. The only thing you AN do at this point, if it's healthy and remains so for the both of you, IS to keep trying. But at some given point, as difficult and heart-wrenching as it is, if neither of you can be happy together in the long run, then ultimately seperation is the best thing to do. And it is NEVER simple because relationships are not meant to be simple, especially given how intense love can be. I hope and pray that everything will work out for the best for both of you. You have been a steadfast friend and I never will forget how you wrote to me each time I got incarcerated. I wish the very best to you.
