I like the Burt's Bees lipbalm, but honestly have never owned my own BB anything. Reminds me too much of my granola tree hugging SIL...
Although I too like the smell and the tase of honey!
But, yeah, weird she left product. Although my ex did too. Anybody want some razor blades, an unopened bottle of Obsession for Men, and about half a dozen slightly used tubs of carmex and blistex? Yuck...
Seriously? Product left behind??? Whatelseyagot? smile I'd be glad to help... Are you doing ok w/that?
You would be an amazing father. Despite... well, a lot... ERASEERASEEASE
You like honey, huh? I just thought you were being sappy. smile BTW, allow the blonde to chime in on the Burt's Bees. To me, it is... utilitarian. Maybe she should have mixed things up a bit in the product area. To keep YOUR attention!
Children and a marriage? Do you have 10 hours?
I have a lot of Aveda hair products. I think she (and prolly a lot of other women) would buy something and decide she didn't like it, but wouldn't throw it out. There have been some cupboard cleaning of hair and body products in the past. This might just be the latest supply.
The Burt's Bees smells okay... You are right it is pretty utilitarian. It's not very sexy. So is the Aveeno lotion. I don't think she really cared to "mix things up to keep my attention" in a long while. Sorry.
So, new story. Well observation that sounds like kvetching.
I was mowing the yard last night and just finished before dark. When I came inside I was instantly, inexplicably P.O.ed. I was wondering why I was so miffed and then I realized that every time I would come in from mowing (still dirty from being outside), the first words out of my stbxW's mouth would be, "What's for dinner?"
I don't have to answer that question anymore....
--Fergie /That's a lot of erasing there MF. //Amazing father? Hmm.. not so sure about that
I wondered where granola came from. It grows on trees!

That is one nice thing about BB. If you lick it, it tastes like honey.
I don't really need the Obsession, since I'm still kicking the same bottle around, purchased in the late eighties. But I'll take the used Blistex... j/k. ICK.
Back in college Thursday was the start of the weekend bar-wise, granted we went out for Hump Day (Weds.), so I guess really Weds-Saturday was the weekend?
I'll take the Aveda stuff, sorry I already tossed the blistex and carmex. He didn't start carrying it 24/7 till he had a gf he apparently wanted to kiss all the time!?!
Think I will give the obsession away. My mom wanted it for my dad but that would creep me out to smell my dad in my H's cologne...ick!
I love mowing! I would do the mowing if my guy would do the grilling....
(Ok I had to go back and edit that I first typed 'do the drilling'.........my mind has a mind of it's own!)
Yeah it is nice not to have the little nagging comments all the time, isn't it?
/Yup we have granola trees all over here in southern Iowa //Don't lick too much BB stuff or you will get a tummy ache ///Can you teach me how to weed-eat, I have broken 3 sets of string already ////Oh yeah in summer Thursdays are taco ride days the bar/grill on our bike trace hosts 1000 cyclists a night /////slashies

Maybe you should have replied to her question by smiling and saying "ME!" .... and then dropping your trousers to the ground, "ENJOY!"
LOL!
That anger you feel is the "spell" being broken, it's a phenomena that is common among men (I went through it) and probably among women too. You've probably noticed those "in love" feelings going away, you are detaching, etc.
This is a good thing.
Next question, since i haven't been "darkening your door" with posts on your thread in a while, when do you start social interactions (aka DATING) with members of the... opposite sex.
Nothing boosts the confidence to where it needs to be right now for you like dating. Invariably people are going to ask "How does dating do that?", well think about it: - you start dating, seeing other women - you're not dating anyone exclusively, you're meeting new people - you're discovering you have options just like your WAS discovered when they left you to have an affair or whatever it is they were pursuing (affair) - you start to feel... different - you will act differently - you will talk differently - and you will communicate in a (you guessed it) different way
You will begin behaving attractively, and the reason is because you KNOW you have OPTIONS. It's a powerful feeling to know that you're not locked to only alternative in your life, it's a very powerful feeling.
Think about it, when you know that you can meet many women, start dating many women (women you can flip this around and substitute men for women in any of what I'm posting here), you will be more attractive.
You now have options, enjoy, the world is your oyster.
And when the WAW finds out about you dating and seeing other women, that is when that fugly "fear of loss" feeling will set in for them. We only appreciate what we had when we don't have it anymore - that's human nature and karma's a bitch!
Maybe you should have replied to her question by smiling and saying "ME!" .... and then dropping your trousers to the ground, "ENJOY!"
Rob, okay.. first. ROTFLMAO.
Next, if this would have been last summer... one of two things would have happened, if I did that. 60% chance of getting the "Fergie-you-are-not-amusing-me" look. 40% chance of taking me up on the offer, but dinner first. She had her priorities.

Yeah..... about that. I sort of started dating someone very recently, hence the increase in PMA. And the contrast to the stbxW is amazing. Was I drunk for the last ten years?

Maybe yes. Maybe no. I think the "average" WAS would feel that way. I don't think she will. And even if she did, she would spin it as either being inevitable anyway or she mucked things up so bad, she deserves it. But right now, she is still solidly, "I don't want him." and I'm solidly, "She doesn't deserve me". I'm pretty okay with that.
You mean Thirsty Thursday? Love it. I guess Hump Day isn't as popular here.I don't think they really need an excuse to drink at UW-Madison.

Yeah.. no. No spouse/partner scents on parents. I remember Tresor came out when I was in college. I thought it was awesome until.... my grandmother started wearing it. ICK

Um, yeah...Ferg, you need to either use cologne up(as in use it regularly till it's gone) or toss it. You can't just keep it for years, it will start to smell like bug spray.
