(((HUGS))) mark, it shows just what a good guy you are that you can step back and realize it was a kind of lousy thing to do, to laugh at her emotions. I know I snickered at it myself, but yeah, I do see your point here.
and I know the purgatory, and the loneliness, too. although I think you are doing pretty good to even find some women attractive. I think its a good sign...if you and your w end up divorced, you will be ready when you are ready, and guessing when you are you will take the reigns and do what you would have liked to have been able to do today.
I don't know what is wrong with me, but I just can't seem to find any men attractive. I think when I am ready to date I will. right now, not so much. although I was at the gym on saturday and there were two guys that mildly sparked my interest. it must be hard because you and your wife still live together. and I do think she still gives you mixed messages, at least from what I am reading lately. my h has been very clear with me lately...crystal clear. even so, I take my marriage vows seriously myself. so maybe that is what is holding me back, too. when I finally let him go for good, I'll be able to move on in that area.
the gift thing makes more sense, btw. and I do find it interesting that your wife is taking it seriously...I think if she was truly gone, she would beg off. or am I reading too much into it?
enough said. I'm not even going to give you sh!t for using the term, "fetching." ummm...thought that went out with the big bands. (j/k)
