... the 4 do a lot of commiserating and mutual encouragement, while DHRGF does the real emotional heavy-lifting and support.
Sooner or later an OM will show up esp. now she's "separated". Don't fall for the "ally" part - its much weaker than the "commiserating". Your "tour of duty" (thanks to Dubbya and Saddam) probably was fertile ground for the seed to be planted in WAW's brain. I think all this DBing dulls the wits into hoping and giving them the benefit of doubt, etc. I bet you she has a plan all worked out in her head to play out the fantasy.
I'm not sure why I'm taking such offense at this post...I guess since the LBS can't control the WAS behavior, I just don't see the point in speculating or projecting. My best friend who divorced her H 2 years ago still hasn't hooked up with anyone (and yes she's attractive). When you find yourself well over 35 and single with children, getting a good shtup is not usually the first priority.
Is there something constructive to take from your post? Is it just to be prepared for OP to show up? Cuz, how the heck do you prepare for that?Personally, I am keenly aware that it is a likelihood in my sitch but I'll have to cross that bridge when I get there...
