BND,

You are absolutely right, it is like a Mexican standoff! My H is such a passive-agressive meglo-maniac! (Not sure what that is, but my friend keeps calling him that!) I have to wonder why I would even put up with any of this!

Btw, my H had been quite verbally abusive (and in writing) that he even came to the house one day when I was out and deleted all his emails. (But luckily I back-up my computer so I still have them...)

The other thing you have to remember, is that anything in writing can be used against you, be careful.



I'd like to read some of your archived emails from your husband, could you give me the url? Would you say that you learned to rethink and speak to him differently by becoming sympathetic to his going through MLC? (Or did you just act as if he was the greatest H in the world? j/k!)

But honestly, I wouldn't be able to pull it off - I'm definitely not that great an actress. I'd have to think of this thing he's going through as a major illness.

Well, I am truly grateful to have my daughter, she's gone through a lot, but she's always been there for me. I wish she had a better relationship w/H, but he's not been a great father these past 2 years. She only deals with him if she has some business, (college-related or getting him to turn the cable back on!) It's sad that he chose to go nightclubbing and vacationing with OW instead of spending any time with her.

Thanks all!
