THX,

Like your plan, and I applaud it's togetherness, logic...but you did say you were an engineer if I remember correctly, so I get why it the way it is (I'm an engineer)... smile

This OM thing is not a deal breaker for me. I realize that an affair goes with an MLC like jam goes on toast, and a PA might not last as long if I don't give a hot damn about it. Might even surprise her if I am somewhat indifferent. Of course that could backfire.


Very wise here, and yeah, I got the opportunity to try it both ways (W has a 2 phase mlc going)...First time IC and I "got her to stop" in phase 1...but unanswered questions lingered, leading to phase 2, and phase 2 is much, much, much worse...this way is better, just let it be, imo.

I basically said that if she demotes me from my position as H, I do not see us being best friends. She didn't like that.


Same here, and same reaction...but I did tell I would "always be cordial to her in front of the kids"...didn't like that either. Not sure why.... crazy
