So she's has been cheating on you and you are trying to rationalize it because you "love her"

Decide what you need and act accordingly, Stop letting yourself get walked all over.

He's an old trapped married man who fell in love with a much younger single lady who was a "sexual healer". He whines about how emotionally distraught he is over her flightiness but he can't get her out of his mind because he's whipped. He likes being that way. It's better than nothing.

You said she's no longer a sex worker. You said she's only seeing one guy repeatedly. It sounds like she's moved on, since you weren't willing to commit to her. She's not a lost soul, she knows what's best for her, and it's not a guy who couldn't finalize his divorce in the three years he's been seeing her, and professing love. It would seem that you're the lost soul, here.

That's what her Taoist teacher had taught her at least. To me it was just prostitution. I was able to get her away from that and she started a great career in beauty. Fast forward 3years and now she goes on a date with a guy to a romantic getaway. I am afraid she is going backwards.

She still wants to see me and says she hopes I will finish my divorce(I am separated for 6years)and we can get married but until then she is going to start dating as she says she doesn't want to waste her 20's away waiting for me. My problem is i am so hurting inside. I can't stand the thought if her with other guys. I am not the kind of guy who wants to have several partners. I am so hurting and just need some help to get rid of the pain. Please offer any advice.
First of all, get divorced. Why are you waiting?

Then, go find someone you can "save". This girl has had enough of waiting around for you.

What exactly was this lifestyle? You have not clarified. Did she or did she not admit to having sex with these men?

What lifestyle did she have? The OP has not said.

She's not cheating. She told him she wanted to see other people.
