Hi oc and lwb,
Yah.. I didn't expect the lovey dovey stuff to last very long.. The spell is broken. I've been at this long enough to know that it doesn't last and it doesn't mean anything. As expected, he freaked out and "ran away".

I am curious, though, if ow noticed how bummed out he was.. I'm sure she was overjoyed to have "her man" there.. Wonder if she knew he was longing for his wife.. That in itself gives me a bit of joy.. Aren't I horrible?!
