so don't sit back, mark. no one is suggesting that you have to. but recognize what you have control over and what you don't have control over. you can take your ball and go home if you don't want to play, but you can't take HER ball and go home, ya know?

you do NOT need to be disrespected. the reason H and I separated is because I finally realized I can't do anything about him seeing her/calling her, and I couldn't live with him while he was doing that. so we separated. that was something in my control. but the passive aggresive stances like the car thing, well, those are bound to backfire, as you well know.

I care about YOU mark. just saying to take a step back, really see what you are attempting to do, and try to do whatever that is with dignity. you do NOT need to strike out at her to maintain/regain your self respect.
