Thanks for responding to my question. Frank, I LOVVVVVVVE that rule of consequense that you gave your wife. I'm sorry it didn't work. I also gave my H that rule -- well, sort of -- when he moved out. What I did was, I left an article on the table before I went to work one day (this was a long time ago, maybe two-and-a-half or three months). Anyway, it was right after he moved out and he's been gone three months. The article said, "Don't date when you're going through a divorce. It will only pXss off your spouse and make it harder on you in the settlement." A rule, which (I might add) my husband did not respect. Maybe he just didn't get it. And maybe I'm just too soft, because I'm still trying to go uncontested.
I've numerous pieces of evidence that he talks to her on his now-infamous cell phone *every single night for about an hour." One time, I even got into his voicemail and heard her after she left a message. I know, I know. That was wrong - my bad. But, at least I know the truth, which is something he is trying desperately to hide from me. I do not understand it, other than perhaps maybe he is trying to protect HER! Ugh! Doesn't matter. Let God be the judge. And, I have a story about that too.
hugs from the dark side of poet!
P.S. Maybe I'll come back here one day and copy and paste the post onto my OWN thread. But, for now, "Let it be, let it be."
