There have been many times when I couldn't say for certain that I agreed with myself the morning after I'd made a terrible decision in a situation that forced the deciding. But I think, on the whole, that your decision in this case was one born of very fine principles.

And I'd worry about you more if you were telling us that you're completely glad you stayed and that you're certain you would never have considered any other action than the one you took. It was not a circumstance with any easy or happy options, yet under those circumstances, you carried yourself admirably. That is a fine thing to have done.
