I just had a thought today. The holidays are coming. And then there will be new year. Emotions for everyone is running crazy for sure.

So, I have been thinking crazy things, both good and bad. Like what H did last year, what OW may be thinking/doing now, what H is thinking/doing now. No doubt H and OW are doing the same thing, riding the emotional roller coaster.

It is unlikely that my H will say anything to me during the holidays. He is not the type who would declare his love/hatred verbally. BUT (a BIG BUT) if he says something, what would be a good response?

- What if H tells me that "I have not contacted OW for 1 month now."
- "I am still thinking about OW a lot. But I am here"
- "OW is very emotionaly lately (holidays!!!). I cannot dump her now. I need to talk/see her"
- "I am not sure if this is working out. I think about her too much."
- "I am going on a business trip to XXX soon" (then do I push if he is going to see OW?)
- NOTHING. No gift. NOTHING.

I am on a ball. How about other H's possible statement during the holidays?
- "I am glad I moved back. It has been a good X months"
- "I am not sure if this is working out. I am still thinking about D"
- "ILY but I will be moving out after the new year"

Chime in and give us what you think a good response to some or all of these may be. Happy Holidays
