There seems to be a consensus that even though I stayed in a failed marriage for 30 years due to a sense of responsibility, that responsibility continues even though she is comfortably settled in an assisted retirement community. Thank you for your comments.

My marriage of 40 years has been disfunctional for 30 years and now my wife is in a first class long term care facility. I feel responsible to pay for her care and visit her regularly, but I am now free to travel and pursue other activities of interest to me. Should I be able to pursue a new relationship without guilt, or would that be beyond the limits of my responsibility to her? I would be interested is various opinions. Thanks.
