Very heartfelt.

I'm committed now. Happily so. With a wonderful, empathetic woman. Grateful every day for her.

I was also reluctant to commit for many years - to anybody.

Unfortunately, most men need an "Oh shit I fucked up" moment before they are ready to say declare they're in. There is no regret any man has, beyond the one who got away. And the paranoia of the woman who really is perfect for him, leaving for good...and when she REALLY MEANS it...is sometimes the only way to get him to wake the fuck up.

Shouldn't have to be this way, but sometimes it is.
