Apparently I'm on the low end of emotional energy spectrum. How in the world do people have the ability to even contemplate Plan B if they're giving Plan A their all? I can understand it in the first few months of dating, but I always found that I reached a point where I was committed to the relationship. At that point, I focused on it, not what else was out there. That happened several times, not just with The_Wife, so it wasn't just in my current relationship.
Perhaps this is a younger person's game that I never got around to playing.
