25yearsmlc,

"That's all well and good. But Bond is not reconciled yet so the story isn't finished....sorry Bond, but it's "Truth" and until we know what really works in a sitch I think your last line is the one to go with..."live for you"..."

That is true and I don't think I was trying to get him to copy me per se, but it seemed like he really needed to establish some kind of boundary with a consequence in his sitch.

Thanks again on my sitch. yeah the OM is an MD. I don't even work for the hospital, but for another company. His pastor friend is head of a prominent non-profit organization and is in charge of a church. That's why I thought they were idiots because if I lost my job and had nothing, if I wanted to, I could have made things more difficult for them. Crazy times I tell you. Plus anyone who would hold a grudge about I don't know what, for 2 years and go behind my back to do all that is beyond my understanding.

Although I wouldn't go so far as to call my wife "wacky" (that's for the OM), I would say that she doesn't know how to cope with bad situations like most people do. She's used to running away from things that are uncomfortable. So knowing that is why I've been trying to make things comfortable for her and get her trust and openness back.

But I've spent too much time talking about her as it is. Tonight I'm hitting the gym and getting down with a good book since I don't have my kids tonight. Then Friday I'm going over to my friend's house for a party.

Emotion, yet peace.
Ignorance, yet knowledge.
Passion, yet serenity.
Chaos, yet harmony.
Death, yet a new life.

RECONCILED AND WISER
