In shock...

I almost hijacked another thread....so I had to come back to my own.

Ok, so the kids call him every night to tell him goodnight. When I place this phone call do I have a polite conversation with him or do I just pass the phone off to the kids and take it back when they hang up?

Am I basically building a friendship devoid of any and all relationship type talking?

Polite, yes. Be a great conversationalist, no.

I'm not familiar with your sitch, Praying in Georgia (btw, didja know that if I abbreviate that, I'm going to have to call you "PIG"? ). Is there OW involved?

Puppy

LOL! Yea, I realized that after the fact!!! Oh well, so be it.

As far as I know there is no other woman. To be honest, I believe him. It may bite me in the bottom one day, but for now I do believe him. I have not found any proof otherwise. (Not that here has been an intense search on my part either.)

He said he isn't in love with me blah blah blah. I have found out that while this has been in the back of his mind for a few 'years' this car accident a few months back sparked his serious thought on the subject. He wants our friendship to remain intact, he also stated that is where he would like to start.

Simply put, I am very hard to live with due to my temper. I take it out on him. Over time it wore him down so that he doesn't want to be around it anymore. He thought that after we married I would be so happy those anger/temper problems would disappear. I also lack respect for him (in his eyes). This is his first relationship ever. He did not date in high school, we met in college.

LOL! More than you asked....
