Trusting,
Your actions shocked the heck out of him. It was so unlike you that all he could do to defend himself was to spew. I'm sure his actions were different than his words, but he can't allow his heart and soul to thaw just yet. Yes, my friend, you certainly did show him that you will not be bullied and that scared him to no end.

I think it would be best to sit quietly for a while and see what transpires next...I'm sure he'll be contacting you sooner than you think. BTW, I understand why you couldn't sleep...this was a very unusual encounter that would make you think about it for quite a while. Just remember, he had to spew at you because you got entirely too close and he didn't want to feel anything for you...he was "defending" himself. LOL!

Trusting,
Be careful. Don't let yourself get sucked in. It is still possible that he will marry the OW. He may still have a very long way to go with his MLC.

Live your life.

Also, trusting, watch out for any action that seems pursuing.

What did he mean that "we" could be retired and in Hawaii? Was the "we" him and OW?

No the "we" was our family. That had always been our plan, to retire in Hawaii. I love it there and he knows that. I will definitely lay low now. I know the touching of the tie, maybe was not good DBing, but it was worth the reaction. It was something not like me to do.

Trusting,
There was absolutely nothing wrong in touching his tie. Sometimes, we have to be unpredictable...why? Because they think they know us so well. They tend to forget that as time passes, we change as well.

I had a good laugh over his reaction and it was one that I would have expected from him. He's not completely baked and he's so sure that you are just waiting around for him and I think he's going to find out that Trusting is a whole different woman from the one he left.

Nice job on the action!

I guess that is MLC logic. If he didn't have an affair, then you and he could be retired in Hawaii.

Hunh.

Exactly forward,
It is as if he forgot all about that. It blows my mind how much in denial these guys are....

All you have to remember is that nothing is ever their fault.

In fairness, there are things that are our faults, too. It does take 2.

With that said, there are dealbreakers and then there are dealbreakers.
