Oh Wow... Ali, what a graceful pen you have.

Very well laid out and easy to understand.

It is amazing how 2 people can read what someone wrote (Me and You) and come to the same conclusion. Yet we express it in two completely different ways. Shocking!

"you started out full of bravado about it, a friend with great benefits etc..then ended up sounding a tad regretful. It made me sad to be honest to read it. I hope you are ok."

Let me put this into FG for everyone to see.

She was full of "Crazy" then ended up with NFC.

Now you will see my thought is exactly the same. I would have never come up with what you wrote on my own.

I know she is OK. She (MMB) just has to realize that the way she is doing things (Trying to communicate) is not working. Everything she is doing/saying is colored with her emotions (Craazy). Her emotions are coming from "him" and what he has dome. Or at least she thinks they are.

It did not make me sad. It almost makes me "angry". I know the person I am talking to is smarter than that. They may try and convince me that they are not. I know better.

Why does it surprise you that her husband wants the gory details. To be honest he likely thinks that the answer to all that is going in lies in that. Her husband has NFC disease to. He is trying to work all this out and understand the "Crazy" so he can try and fix it. He can see that MMB does not want to move on what he cant see is how to move past it all. Now MMB has given him another sticking point. You are kind of asking about some gory details right here.

"is he M or separated too this man? Cos that would make it more complicated and not a good idea I guess."

I see why you are asking, but in the scheme of things it really does not matter. Simple fact is she did it. The best thing she can do is not dwell on it and keep the fallout from this localized to her side.

You have walked in her shoes. You know the fallout. Now from what I read you were just BF/GF (Not Married). You have seen what can happen, imagine now, what she has to deal with, Marriage/Divorce, Kids, A house, Child support, Alimony, etc can you see now how the situation is compounding upon itself.

I hope she gets back to posting.

I hope she starts listening.

I have a sneaking feeling that she will keep posting. But we are gonna have to walk a little further before she starts listening. She is not ready yet.
