My H (58) and the OW (55) are revisiting their teenage years. Before I learned not to snoop I found some rather pathetic e-mails which he had printed out and kept in his briefcase. (Along with notes in the margins such as yes, yes!! You are such a nurturing mother.)
She had done everything but write her name as Mrs. ______. She had questions for him e.g. would you hold my hand when we watch a movie, will you dance with me in the kitchen, were you married in a church, what is your favorite... well you get the idea.
She has expressed a desire to watch "Cinderella" and "Sleeping Beauty" cartoons with him since he is her Prince Charming.
Her husband wants her to work on the marriage, but, unfortunately he hasn't heard of DB. From her e-mails he has been doing all the things to drive her away: crying, begging, and pleading.
I think that the husband tried to telephone the house once. A slightly drunken male voice said something like " Your husband is ______". He hung up before I could talk with him.
I really wish it would be appropriate to contact him, tell him about DB and that way two marriages wouldn't be in shambles as a result of the MLC.
How are the rest of you dealing with a formerly solid husband who has morphed into a love-sick teenager? Do they ever wake up and see what is going on before it is too late for their marriages?
