Will he ever marry me?

Dear Carolyn,
My boyfriend and I are having a few problems. The main one is that he’s not divorced yet from his wife. He’s a long-haul trucker and she’s a stay-at-home mom. She handles all the business side of trucking including paying the bills, taxes and fees. They have both agreed to a divorce but it’s taking a long time due to finances. We started going out a year ago and he really loves me. However, he doesn’t want to rock the boat with his wife because times are tough and she’s really good at all the paperwork.
I want to be with this guy but I’m not sure it’s going to work out.
What do you think?
Jessie

Dear Jessie,
Let’s see here. You want my permission to keep dating this married man? And he’s staying with her because she’s good with paperwork? I don’t know, Sweetie. I think you could do better. You could start with dating available guys. Just a thought

I’m just say’n,
Carolyn
