T2L, I did read the article, the writer is a genius. How true every word. I also agreed about the 6 month cycle for an affair. In the DB book, it says that instead of hating the OW, see what would attract your H to her. Today, one of my co-workers in conversation told me that the OW usually has a huge Halloween party every year and decorates the house etc. not knowing of course that this is my H OW! He then goes on to show me pictures of last years party. Everyone was dressed up and I remembered that H told me we were invited last year, but we did not go because he did not know if it would be right going to her house because he is her boss??? How times change! But interestly my co-worker told me she is still with her boyfriend and I found out he works here also! the plot thickens. He said that the OW is totally opposite with her boyfriend, the boyfriend is very quiet, does not drink shy, while the OW LOVES to drink, gets loud likes to party etc. Now I know why my H keeps coming home drinking big time. As my H was a borderline alcoholic and gave up drinking many years back, this will catch up to him big time. What will start off as a good time will eventually catch up with him and not in a good way. He will be unable to keep up. Marisol, JGrind, T2L, we are not the backup plans. Do not think of ourselves. THEY are the backup plans. If they continue to act in this manner they will be the losers because we are the best and it will be a shame if they do not "see the light" and realize the errors of their ways! These OW are only 6 month temporary fixes! right? Time to work on our 180s...
