Holy crap DMR, 200 work-related emails? That would totally discourage me from going back to work! I have about 10 voice messages on my phone (I'd have to kill myself if I had 200 ) and am studiously ignoring them. Which just compounds the problem of course, but I cannot bear to listen to 10 voice mails!
My H is also a great one for telling me stories about infidelity - both movies, jokes and people he knows who are unfaithful, and also about people he knows who seem to be going thru MLC! He does not seem to correlate his behavior and theirs at all though. I wonder if this is a MLC trait? NQ's theory that it might be a way of justifying their actions is interesting. It seems so strange that my H is VERY judgmental about other people's actions but just can't see he's doing the same thing!
Another strange thing is that H is dead set against amnesty for the illegal aliens. If I were in love with a foreigner who cannot get a green card, I would advise him to visit, then over stay his visa. And before long, he will be legal. The fact that H is not advising RT to do this gives me great hope.
So, what is up with W sleeping on your couch? Did you use it as an excuse for sneaking in some casual touching? Maybe sitting on the edge of the couch and touching her arm to ask if she wants some coffee or something?
