Agreed, it really appears as if he is becoming unhinged. I think he has OD'ed on the narcotic effect of the endorphins.

I'm beginning to question just how good he is at his job these days. I may have mentioned before that he doesn't seem to have any insight. His Emotional Quotient (E.Q.) seems to be somewhat low. He is so handsome and charming on the surface that he has gotten a pass most of his life for not following through or keeping promises.

Lord knows he has studied enough about the stages of love that he should have an inkling that his infatuation with OW is rather artificial and destined to be short-lived since they have not yet had to weather any crises together. (Other than their own infidelities to their spouses.)

One thing that once really galled me was that OW was giving H advice on how to treat me e.g. to be kind but honest that the marriage is over. (He has her right up there on a pedestal and commented how wonderful she was to consider my feelings.) I really am beginning to feel pity for her now. She is in for a big surprise. I have no anger.

OW was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO angry. My H intended still going on our anniversary trip whilst still carrying on with OW when he got back. Upshot was we had a fantastic time in Marrakech and I enjoyed the fact that OW was really really pissed off!!!! Made it just SO much the sweeter. (By then she had lost her job at my H's Co. too - happy days )


I just LOVE happy endings, especially when there is an OW involved. (Back in my marriage detective days I read H's e-mail to her which indicated that since she had said she loved him first, he was blameless in the whole debacle.
