The Joy of the Lord is my Strength

I'm glad you've made a decision about the flowers. She may surprise you and enjoy them. Sending flowers was something that you use to do, so it just might be something she appreciates.

Whatever happens, your intentions were good. Don't sweat it!

I hope your day goes well and that you feel good about the flowers decision. I'll be praying for you.

Does it ever get easy LOL.

I told the darn florist to deliver the flowers between 11-12 today - guess what they deliver them at 9 in the morning - while I am still home -- can't make this stuff up -- my FIL walks in the flowers - she is like what the hell are those for -- and I just walk out -- no expectations so I am actually ok --

You did the right thing for you, regardless of her response.

Sunny,
No matter what her response was, you did what you thought was right w/no expectations.

Don't allow her comments to bring you down. Many of us would have been very happy to receive flowers and she's one lucky lady to have received them today.

Sunny, you did what was right in your heart. You can always look back n this day and have a warm, good feeling in your heart that you followed your convictions. This will be true whether you reconcile or not.

In the quiet moments in your W's mind, she knows you care and aren't afraid to do the right thing. It's hard not to react to her callousness, but I applaud you for doing the best you can right now.

Try to have a good night. Let us know how it continues to go.

How did the rest of the day go, Sunny?

How did the rest of the day go, Sunny?

I worked from 9:30 to 8:30 today got home around 9:00 my wife is dressed to the 9's to go out with her girlfriend.
One thing I did right was always compliment my wifes looks, maybe to much.
I just realized something I told her that I thought her hair would look great frosted for a long time she said dye would never touch her hair its frosted now -- she always wore baggy cloths I told her she should show off her body she said she would never - now she wears skin tight cloths. I purchased perfume for her and asked her to wear it - she never did now she douses herself in it before she goes out -

She is out looking to hook up on our 10th anniversary not how I expected to spend it we were supposed to be in Italy and Paris -- I am numb really not angry or mad - the fact that I accept and expect being treated like this is mind boggling to me -- she is making it very easy for me to see a divorce in our future. Doesn't seem as bad or as hard as it did 2-3 months ago.

I wish I could get off this MLC ride already - honest I am not angry - I don't know why I am not but I am ok not happy but ok.

I'm sorry she didn't acknowledge your anniversary. My 10 year anniversary is in about six months. It's such a frustrating situation to be in. At least you can take peace in the fact that you acknowledged it.
I must say though, that she may not be trying to pick up.
She is doing all the things YOU used to want her to do. Maybe in her MLC brain she is trying to make you jealous/ suffer. Not that that is anymore exceptable.
Remember that happiness is just around the corner for you, if you choose it.
