The only thing I seem to miss from everyone's comments is the concept of committment. You and Ratbastid are committed to each other. You have a respect for each other that goes beyond a normal relationship. In my mind this takes your love to another level. That is why you didn't end the relationship with things were bad, you know what you have is significant and important.
You and D are at a different place. The love that the two of you have is on different level, not just compared to you and Rabastid, but also comparing you and D. Your relationship with D&S has changed from where it was, as do most relationships. The question is: Has it changed to the point where it is no longer what you want? And if so, what do you do?
I could suggest what you do, but my opinion will have about as much relevance as a coin flip - I'm not you, and I'm not in your situation. All I can suggest is that you look at your relationship with D&S. If you are getting what you need out of the relationship then stay with it. If you think you may be able to get what you need out of it, put some work into it. If you think all you efforts will ultimately end in heartbreak and bad feelings - do what you think is right.
Good luck.
