You got to do what you should / One life

[MichelleLT]

I am having a hard time dealing with a co-worker. He knows the general bit of my stitch, so when his W told him she wanted a D, he called me. And has been calling me. A lot. And e-mailing me.

I told him about these boards, I gave him a couple books (unfortunately I think I put DR in storage, can't find it now). But I'm having a hard time with it. One, because he's relying on me a lot, and it's a bit overwhelming on top of work, friends, fun, etc. Two, it's dredging up a lot of memories and emotions for me. After his W told him ILYBNILWY she went to see a couple ex-bfs. He found out and is flipping out. His W seems to be in full MLC, neglecting their kids, the whole 9 yards. And I feel like a broken record telling him to buy DR, to wait 48 hrs before reacting to things, to just breathe, to stop snooping.

I remember far too vividly the ups and downs of those first few months. But I can't tell him not to talk to me at all, although I definitely need to say no calls after 9 pm lol. Frankly, it's making me moody. And poor RB has to deal with me LOL.
