We may have a chance after all

That is kind of awkward with the OW there - sounds like you're handling it admirably, but it's got to be making him feel uncomfortable, and a likely source for some of the phone weirdness over the last few day. Car seat - heck, I'm always moving that passanger seat around in my car to make room for stuff.

Thanks, Bill. See, I told you a man's pow was sorely needed. We girls never move the stupid passenger seat thing: we just pile stuff on it. That is exactly what my H says if I comment on the change of position: he moved it to make room for our daughters car seat! I thought it was just a stupid excuse (sheepish )

Today, in the office, he did act uncomfortable but I chose to attribute it to not knowing what kind of a scene we could have made... I HAS to be uncomfortable to be faced with your W and your X-OW in front of your customers! I do think I handled this particular situation well, if I say so myself but I could not have done it w/o my BB friends listening and encouraging me.

As for asking him to get her out completely - I have no experience in this kind of sitch, but Michele says, ask for what you want. If you to are comfortable with where you are, it's probably the thing to do. Not a demand, not anything to push as pressure, you are just asking for what you want. And act as if the conversation is going to be a good one and work out just fine.

I plan to. I just need to find the right time and the right way to ask...
