From reading so many situations here, I get a sense that often the WAS keeps contact with the LBS re: "homey" things. I wonder if that gives them some sense of security which makes it easier for them to be with "shiny new person"?
Do you think that really Dudess - are you saying that they keep in touch on homey things so that they maintain their bolt-hole to run to when things go pear shaped for them?
I'm just wondering if it's the only 'safe' ground that they have to play upon as they know that other topics may be out of the question. I certainly think that they are protecting their own a$$ets (or a$$es?) and many use it to remain in a controlling position over the LBS. That's just my two bobs worth, anyhow - perhaps it's just the way I see my own situation! Of course, talking about the pets is the real heart squeezer.
I wonder how your H is feeling having to make his own travel arrangements? Good that you didn't get sucked in on that one. My H always relied on me to make ours, mostly because I enjoyed doing it. He must be having a ball now, making so many trips back and forth interstate and doing it all for himself - all from a man who had never even been on a plane until he met me! I also wonder how he felt the first time he flew on his own - we always had a silly little ritual where we would hold hands on take off and landing ... just incase we crashed, I guess!
Glad that you got the new jeans and shoes! Yes, we all like to go there for some reason. Makes us feel good, so what the heck?
