Hey OL, I'm still pressed for time but want to let you know I'm still here. Some quick questions and comments for you...

Maybe I'm trying to prove to her I'm not the monster that she's making me out to be??
What kind of a monster were you? What do you think you did wrong? Nothing you did means that you deserve what's happening now (unless it's abuse of somekind,and I don't think that's the case. ). I think it's good to get to the root of the problems in the M/R and try to correct them. Even if you don't get the chance to improve in this M, it will be good for any future R you may have, and for yourself.

Glad you're kidding, but I suggest staying away from the Jack for a while anyway.

I see your point, but you can't compete with him anyway, especially not financially, right? You're better than that old sob. You don't have to compete, and you can't anyway. He's not even playing the same game as you. Play your game, and you win. Your game is GAL, PMA, work on yourself. You win no matter what happens.
I've read 3 or so books on infidelity, and they all say the OM/OW is usually not better looking, etc., than the spouse. It's really not about the OM. It is funny that he's so much older. Glad you feel a little better and had a laugh.

Its also got me thinking of other courses or classes I might want to take..
Good GALing. GAL can be free stuff too, IMHO. But this is good.

I know what you mean. With them we can see them and there warts and all. When they are just in our head, we can put them on a pedastal.

I am so lucky my employer has patience with me. It's been really hard to concentrate the last 6 months. It keeps getting easier.
We'll make it.
