Good day at work today for me, after hosting a lovely dinner party last night.
Also found out from one of the STBXW work colleagues that she was lying about having told any of them about what had happened. They're full of sympathy for her, not having realised she wasn't wearing her ring, and how awful the last few months must have been for her. As if!
She's running away. Leave all the old behind, and start new job 90 miles away where no-one knows she was married, she can talk about OM to her heart's desire. Thing is, she can't run away from her family. And she can't run away from herself.
Reality is that which, if you don't believe in it, doesn't go away.
