Okay guys, bring out the 2 x 4's and start swinging. The pathway to Hell is paved with good intentions, and my intentions were to remain dark, but after all the ranting he did at me the last two days, he had the gall to send me an email today at 4:00 saying "Are we still on for Friday at Waldron?"
I lost it. I completely and totally lost it. I responded:
"Are we still on for Friday"? "But anyway, no, I will not be in Waldron" "I'm really tired of being the bad guy all the time " "We both got to remember it's not all about me or all about you,"
And my personal favorite: "Let's put our personal feelings aside and get this over with "
Do you ever listen to yourself? Can you print out and reread the things you have written? Put our personal feelings aside? What the hell is a 20 year marriage if not personal feelings? You know perfectly well why you feel like the bad guy. Because you destroyed our family. You've lost respect. And if we need to remember that it's not all about you and me, then who the hell is it all about? All our hopes and dreams for all these years and right when it's time to happen, you bail. On all of us. On yourself. No, I will not meet with you tomorrow. Frankly, I'm not sure you are even stable.
I will, however, make a list out of things and take it to John to forward to Orvin to send to you. You can forward your list to my lawyer the same way.
I for one can't 'put my personal feelings aside' My whole world was destroyed and I tend to take it seriously. I expected to spend the rest of my life with the man I loved and instead got crapped on for someone who'll be sleeping with the next boss on a business trip after you're just a retired old man.
Slug me all you want guys. I probably deserve it. I'm seriously starting to doubt his sanity. If his therapists saw some of the emails he sent, they'd lock him away.
Sorry I let you down Eric, but I'm auburn headed for a reason.
Planning on working on that list for the lawyer this weekend. Going to the football game out of town tomorrow night, then having friends over for dinner and movies Saturday night. He's not keeping me down. Not anymore.
