Dear Thelma,
I am in my mid-30s, and my partner is in his 40s. We’ve been together for seven years, and our relationship began during a challenging time for him – he was going through a divorce. I was hopeful that once his divorce was finalised, we would move forward toward marriage. However, the timing was never right. He faced significant rough patches in life, making it difficult for us to plan a future together.
