Challenges in Maintaining Relationships and Responsibilities

Dear Eric: I’ve been in a rewarding relationship for a decade. Our journey began before we each married different partners and continued after those marriages concluded. Now in our 60s, we have nurtured a strong bond.

Though we don’t share a home, my partner has often provided financial support, even when I did not request it. I reside in a property owned by my extended family, and he would stay over twice weekly.
