Wife in Major MLC...Looking to Vent

[bombardier50]

Tamashii...50K on implants!??! Why didn't she just go for a new head? My gawd...

Jack 3 Beans, I know the odds. I'm not giving up...at least not right now. We have too much shared experience and history for me to quit right now. I still feel as though MY best chance for happiness is with her.

Was2sad...appreciate the MC advice. Excellent.

Now...let me tell you what happened last night and you guys tell me if I handled it OK.

Her latest game is to go out after work for a couple of drinks and turn off her cell. I have no idea where she is or when she plans to come home. She usually doesn't stay out too late. I have not said anything to her about this...yet.

Last night my son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter came over to visit around five-thirty pm. I invited them to stay for dinner and told them W would be home from work shortly (she was scheduled to work until five...20 minute commute).

Six o'clock. No Wife. Six-thirty. No Wife. DIL asks me what's going on. I say, "Don't know. Give her a call if you want." So DIL calls her at work. Lady at work tells her my W left promptly at five. So DIL calls wife's cell. No answer. DIL leaves message.

Now it's seven o'clock. No W. We're sitting down to eat. Now SON calls wife's cell. No answer. Leaves message. Son is verrryyy irritated.

Eight o'clock. No wife. We're doing dishes.

Eight thirty. Phone rings. Son grabs it before I can, and he is merciless.

Son: So mom, long day at work?
Wife: Yea, pretty busy day.
Son: Funny thing, lady at work said you left right at five.
Wife: Oh, well, ah, you know, sometimes it takes me a while to get everything together.
Son: So what're saying? It took you three hours to find your car?
Wife: Don't talk to me like that! I'll be home in 20 minutes.

Busted. And the best thing about it...not by me.

I did not say a word when she got home. I was my happy, cheery self. Kids left, I said goodnight. That's it.
