(sorry Ian...I'm pretty sure this will set the howling banshees off on your thread but jeeeeeeeeeeeepers....i can't keep my mouth shut sometimes!!!!)
And when the hell have I ever been afraid of the howling banchees.....seems to me Fig that you used to think I ate them for breakfast at one time anyway.

Hurt is hurt, no matter what way you slice it. Seems like Ian's hand was forced to maybe admit some things he wasn't ready to. I've been in that situation and it certainly doesn't feel good.
I appreciate that Fig, but I have also been working on being more open with the things that I have kept private in the past.I have been known to not share how I feel and private things out of fear or shame, or simply self disgrace. There is nothing in my life that is above reproach and I am learning that the phrase "It is what it is" is probably one of the most profound ever created because it is dead on.
I would have preferred to divulge on my own terms, but I am certainly not upset that I had to. I don't believe there is any one person on this board who has not screwed up or made mistakes along the way. So my philosophy at this point is as long as it wasn't illegal or jeopardized my family, it should be an open book. My expectation would be that people would loving embrace the openness and deal with the issue at hand rather than stand in judgment.

I shared with Ian my concerns about the new girl he is seeing. And, that's all they are, my concerns
Yes you did, and I appreciated your candor.....and laughter care for a stick of gum???????

At one time, Ian and I were great friends too. I made some decisions he didn't agree with, he made some I didn't. SHite happens but just because we hurt each other does NOT mean that we were emotionaly invovled...for crying out loud!!!!
That is true, we were not...... and at one time..... I have already told you that no matter our differences I do care about what happens with you and your boys just as I know you do about me and my kids. Like you said, shiite happens.
at one time anyway. 
care for a stick of gum???????
