The birthday thing is not really that big of a deal. I'm not expecting anything from her despite the fact that we have been getting along pretty well. The tough part for me is not giving my W something for our anniversary and knowing that the OM will likely do something romantic. But I know a gift from me, even something light will increase her guilt, so...

Nobody ever claimed that DB was easy eh?

JTB, I wrote this in another post under another topic heading a few days ago: "we get the problems we need in life to fix those things about ourselves that need fixing". Well, among many other things, patience and handling stress well were never my best qualities. Because of my current M sitch, I have made tremendous progress improving those particular traits.
