Nikki - I would also be interested in hearing what Oldtimer has to say about my little parable, especially, since I believe that my WAW may be an exception to its scenario.
I think that the W has everything all planned out, as she usually does: meet the OM's family in Texas at Thanksgiving, go to Paris and get engaged in December, get the divorce final in February, become a full-fledged catholic in April, and get married sometime in the summer. Then in 2009, she gets her tubes untied and gets pregnant (at the age of 43). Neat huh?
I think her momentum will carry her through to the wedding (unless he gets cold feet). Unfortunately for her, the universe has a way of screwing up the best laid plans. I remember the saying: "Want to hear God laugh? Tell him your plans." It will be interesting to see what happens.
How is it going with you? I'll check your thread.
