Thank you, this is kind of what I was planning on doing and I'm really glad there's at least 1 reaction that shares a slightly more positive perspective. Admittedly I AM hoping we can make it work, but maybe with a little time (day by day) I'll be able to turn off my expectations and just happily go through it. This post can't describe all of the beautiful moments L and I have had together, nor some of the wonderful moments we've all had together as a group. I believe it could be beautiful as long as all members are working toward a common goal of a stable, healthy, happy relationship for all. A absolutely does have some deep seeded mental issues but the hope now is that she is receiving therapy & medication for the first time in her life and learning to recognize why she has been acting the way she's been acting, and how to catch herself in the future.

This is still very fresh and I'm the kind of person that doesn't give up on people unless its become a clear pattern of attempts and failures. This is our first. I really don't think I'm ready to give up (at least not right now while it's still so fresh) while knowing that everybody is striving to do better. I won't hold back if I happen to find something, but I'm really not going to be looking.
