Hmm, what happened to CB? Well FLTC, CB is the mother of my D's friend and we began having coffee together while our children were at activities. I confided in her my marital situation and she was incredibly empathetic. She then shared her separation story with me because as she said "I want you to know that no matter how bad things get, they will get better". We would spend time together off and on, she told me she had a BF and I never pushed for more than what we were doing. In the early Fall she began initiating time with me and then suddenly when I separated from my W she stopped spending time with me at all. After a few weeks I asked her what was going on and she gave me a line about "chores" to do. Since then she has avoided me like the plague. Obviously more was going on there than just two coffee buddies and I certainly admit to having hopes that somewhere down the road we might be something together. I think she just recognized where this was going and cut it off. Naturally, I felt hurt by her lack of honesty about the reasons but I don't know what I'd do if I were in her place. I guess she let herself get a little carried away and then found herself in a situation that threatened her R. So that's that. Btw, I will be seeing her tomorrow night at the kids concert, I'm a bit nervous but I will be friendly if the oppotunity arises and if she avoids me then she avoids me. So basically I lost my M and at the same time lost someone who had been very supportive through this whole thing, a double whammy! That's the CB story, in short form. Oh, and yes, I made my own boat and apparently sunk it too!
