I don't want to hijack KJ's thread, but let me say something else...for you too, Kelly Jo.
The last few weeks, for one reason or another, the subject of other women's spouses or boyfriends has come up. My wife would go into these descriptions of what she has heard from these women and how they are being treated.
The behavior sounded so much like what I used to do, I would cringe. How could she be listening to these women and talking to me about it, and not remembering every detail of every bad thing I had ever done?
Most of these talks were while were out having dinner, doing something fun, and I can't think of one time when she acted cool or cold after the conversation. Most times it was just the opposite.
I remember in one of Smartcookie's posts, she talked about her own anger slowly going away.
It was Bworl that told me each positive will help erase one of the negatives.
