Kev, I think you’ve probably learned from this thread that there is no “one size fits all” when it comes to relationships, weddings, marriage, and life in general.
What one person considers “great” would be of little interest to another person, because we each define our “perfect” or “close to perfect” situation differently–and that’s a good thing.
IMO, as long as each of us is happy with the choices we make, and living the lives WE want to live–that’s all that really matters–so go for it, and enjoy!!
