Hi Jeff

A response to your post on Nicola's thread:

That's one smart Italian person ;\) Not only is it the best revenge but ultimately the LBS learns to find their own happiness without the WAS. I was reminded again today when my friend, who left her H (3 yrs ago now) had to let her DDs go away for one week with her H (yes still not D) and OW and know that it still hurts. She asked me if the pain of seeing her DDs enjoy being with their dad and OW and being part of a family which doesn't include her, ever go away.

So while she appeared to be happy when she walked away, she is still paying the consequences of her decision 3 years later.

Horsepower - to keep up with me
Sleek lines - to catch my attention
Purring engine - to whisper sweet nothings in my ears
Nice body - tells me he is confident and likes who he is
Open sunroof - tells me he is ready to accept and share himself with someone else
Classy colour - grey or black and definitely not red - while I like a red car, it tells me he is only looking for attention and therefore is either very cocky or insecure (JMO and may not always be the case)

If I can find a man with the characteristics of a Mercedes 500C, I will have the man of my dreams (and hopefully the car too) ;\)

How is your summer going? I really hope you are focusing on being happy. We all deserve it.
