As far as when I have plans to do things, he's always said yes, during the week for the most part. In fact, he'll act hurt and say why do you even have to ask so he has been really good about being the babysitter. There are times when I don't ask him also, when I do have other people watch son.

I remember telling him that I was going out on a Friday night awhile ago and he did offer to watch son, but I had someone already. But, then thought it would be nice for son to see H, but H then said I already have plans which was fine. He came over that Sunday and said to me I was looking for you Friday night..I said what? I had gone to eat in another town with some gf's and he made the same plans with OW no doubt, but I'm soo glad I didn't run into him.

So you think I shouldn't tell him what my plans are because he always does ask. Again, he's been really good about helping out with son when I have to work late or have plans to go out. I generally don't ask him for the weekends because I like to be with son since I work all week or let him stay with family members.

I just need suggestions on his cheeseless tunnels...do actions speak louder than words? If I keep in mind what you said about the rat I'll probably end up laughing in his face about it.

I have been staying upbeat lately, it was hard at first, but it's becoming a little more natural...isn't that weird. Five months ago I wouldn't have believed I could keep it up. It's the bb and all the reading and soul searching I've been doing.

Thanks for your support.
