Why can't I do this....

[Dom R]

she took a red bow and put it on her head.
I said "That is the only present that I want this year." To which she said, "you already have me." And gave me a great kiss.

that's sweet I'm jealous.

(mind wanders, imagines wife decorated with red bows and nothing else... )

Now, I just need to figure out a way to get OM to stop pursuing.

Nope. you dont.

It only matters what your wife wants from him at this point.

If OM is still pursuing your wife... "all" you have to worry about, is whether your W really wants to talk to him or not.
If she truely does not want to talk to him... then she can either just stop taking his calls, and/or change her phone number.

Oh... there's also a slightly less drastic "block a number" feature with most services. But if he's a persistant bugger, he'll just call from a payphone or whatever, so changing the number is the usual solution.


But..eh... now is not the time to bother your wife about all that. I'd say, just enjoy your positive time together, and have a great family Christmas. With a little luck, the best present you'll get, would be if he tires out and gives up after a while
