No, you shouldn't be embarrassed for doing the right thing, even if it cost you money, and shouldn't be in a relationship where that's even a possibility.

There were a bunch of people in line behind me and you just know that half of them are thinking you're an idiot for not taking the money and run.
In general I don't give a D what people think of me, but all factors combined didn't make me cheerful, which kind of surprised me.
As far as the hubby, we've got 22 years together thinking we both got the better deal, (yeah, I'm ancient by 2 + 2 standards.)

You're totally right, of course. My integrity is worth much more to me. But, I'm also a realist about human nature. A huge percentage of the planet doesn't see the sitation in those terms. "People are basically good", is a fallacy in my experience.
