Just one question - why is the high road paved with potholes, speed bumps, and other assorted obstacles!!!!
Because if this were easy, there would be a lot fewer divorces. Trust me. No matter what happens, you will look back and be proud of yourself for doing the right thing...now I just need to keep reminding myself of that.
So, do you want to me up with me and peace in FL? Could be fun...we can sit around and tell MLC jokes!
Hang in there sweetie. Things will get better and then better still.
Thank you so much Grace and Upside.... I appreciate the words of encouragement.
Went to D14's game tonight. H showed up.
He had on a new sweater - my bet is that it is cashmere. He had on new jeans - they weren't Levi's. And he had on new boots - looked like some kind of riding boots - looked a little silly to me. My H is a bit pretentious - for his MLC he wouldn't dress like a 20 year old - he would dress in more money than he has....
He also joined a gym.
I think we can check off those items from the "Is he in MLC" checklist.....
UD - have you guys set a date? Where are you staying?
((((W8ing,)))) I finally found you. Sorry, I have had a LOT going on, and I have been remiss.
I remained calm and said that doesn't matter. From this point forward, could we please handle this with dignity and class?
He looked at me and said yes. I thanked him.
Not an apology. Nothing.
I wanted to rip his heart out.
I wish I was that strong, But I don't think I would have handled that well. I got unconstructively angry just b/c she talked to a friends W about us and confronted me w/ what was said.
I hope that things are well for you and your D's.
Best,
Punk.
These are my friends now!
But someday baby... You ain't worry my life anymore
Take away, take away what I don't need, save the good part please. Fade away, fade away.
Mine too...that was the first thing that popped into my head when I met my H...later he seemed more down to earth, but there was alway air of pretentiousness about him.

If only that checklist could tell us how they are progressing through this.

Haven't figured anything out yet. I was looking at the weekend of Feb.8 & 9 or Mar. 7 & 8. If you are interested, let us know what weekend works best for you.
I love the analogy used about taking the high road, and yes- it has what seems like way too many potholes. We all know here that we are doing the right thing, unfortunately it may or may not work out for us in the long run. But we will always be proud of our efforts and have a sense of honor in what we are trying to accomplish, no matter the turn out.I have had many people tell me that they think I have a lot of character for being able to with stand his MLC. I also think that the lessons we learn here we will be able to be applied in so many other facets of our lives. Doing what is right is not always easy, and the easy things in life aren't always worth a whole lot or mean a whole lot. We all need to be proud of our selves for enduring this pain with pride and dignity. This is what will define us in the long run. Keep on standing!!!! We'll take the high road while they take the low road, and they will eventually have to face the end of their low road and deal with any consequences thereafter. TIPPER
