Tad's Overdue Update

[tested metal]

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the comments.

I did a lot of thinking today. I found myself thinking that maybe MLC is just an excuse. It still doesn't make it easier dealing with what she did. However, the W I knew and loved wouldn't have even thought of doing some of the things she has done. So...who knows right?

Now to your comments:

The problem is Tad, that you can't.

The solution is what do YOU wan to do. That is the only factor that you know at this time.

It is a tough decision and takes Indy's "Leap of Faith". Maybe there is a bridge there, maybe there isn't.
Angel, you said:

I know I have been harsh on you in my posts, (really, not just me but a lot of others too) but you know its because we all have been trying to get you out of your funk, turn your head around so that you will find yourself instead of looking at xOW all the time. We love you, thats why.

I'm glad you have been. I'm sure I needed it and still do from time to time. Thank you.

Tad, as long as you don't hurt her and she knows what is going on? Then I am happy for you.

Thanks Jack. She does know. Matter of fact, I've probably told her a lot more than the people on this board. (If you can believe that.) She actually encourages me to talk about it. Sometimes though, I don't because I don't want to make her uncomfortable. She is a nice girl. I've known her for a long time. She was a listener of mine that I've known since my radio days.

You're divorced, I don't see why you shouldn't date. Bear in mind, though, that it's not fair to someone you're dating if you would drop them like a hot potato if your Ex came back.

I've thought about this a lot KML. I've played it in my mind so many times and I would probably take the X back but......I wouldn't want to hurt GF either. To be honest, I'm not sure what I would do when and if it ever got to that point.

If she's someone who wants to get married and have her own family in the next few years, and you're someone with no interest in starting a second family - then it would be unfair to date her. If, on the other hand, you would welcome the idea of a second family - then I don't see the age difference as a complete deal breaker.

Well she has made it clear that she doesn't want marriage anytime soon. Hell, I don't either. As for having a family, she has a daughter and can't have any more kids.

I'm glad you returned to post an update. Congratulations on moving into your new place...it sounds wonderful.

Thanks for the very nice words Snodderly. I do have a question though. You said:

She is one miserable woman and wants you in the same boat w/her. That boat is called misery.

My question is: How can you tell that she is miserable? Maybe she is putting on one Hell of an act when around me?

Again, thanks for the comments and nice words.

Tad
