All good advice. Irulan is very wise and I second her suggestion--strongly--to seek counseling. There are no doubt underlying issues of self-confidence and insecurities and guilt (you feeling guilty for doing what you love to do--how messed up is that??) on both sides. If I can see it without knowing anything about you, a counselor working with both of you can really make some headway.
Your 2-3 year outlook--does that mean that after 2-3 years you're going to go back to sitting on the sofa and eating twinkies? Or will you continue your love of the sport in different ways, such as riding, touring, even racing. There are plenty of opportunities for racing at the Masters level.
Seems like there's some way for you BOTH to compromise, although you are talking only about what you can do. We can't answer that.
