John, Hope you get to have your date tonight. Good luck! You never know about the announcement to D. My H and I had "the talk" scheduled for 4 different days. I made up our visitation schedule. He put a deposit on an apartment and ordered furniture. The apartment is canceled. The furniture order is on hold. And we haven't had the talk with our S yet, haven't even talked about having the talk in several days..... Some times when push comes to shove they realize that even though they don't like where things are in the R, they also don't want to leave it. Having "the talk" is a very "real" step, and sometimes it makes them really think about things. My sitch is far from great we still don't know what will happen. But MIL called today and said H told her bottom line no matter what he said he could never leave his kids and didn't want to leave me, either. Just didn't know how to make it work, either.
So good luck, hopefully you will have an enjoyable evening! It ain't over til it's over.....
