Hi Rosa, listen, you're human. I think what you said is kinda funny. But maybe that's just me. LOL! After all, I made little outfits for his cell phone so I do have a sick sense of humor.
Nero, you know I love you. I just have to say that you do have power in all this.
You get to choose whether to stand or not. You get to choose whether you are going to do it with dignity and strength. You get to choose whether you are going to live your life and find happiness in it. You get to decide whether you are going to look within. You get to decide whether you are going to be a victim or not. You get to choose who you want to be and what life you want to have. You get to decide whether you are going to feel like a victim.
You have power in all this. You do. Dont give it to them. Take it back, my friend.
You know, when the affair is out in the open like his is, AND you still live together, poking a little fun at it is not off limits, I think. It shows your spouse you have a sense of humor and are strong. It's actually a good way to toss a few truth darts.
Your H is not going anywhere, RL. Continue to take charge of your happiness and your home. Maybe do something new. Does H want to join you for the ride? His choice.
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.

H and I were just watching a comedy about a man covering up an affair and I asked him if he is taking notes. Not like me at all, not DBing at all. Pretty bitchy in fact
Thank you for my morning funnies, Linda! Got a good chuckle out of this. Way to go, girl!!
yeah, i know, believe it or not i think I am in fact reclaiming some of my own "power" - somehow tho, particularly when i'm a self-indulgent wah wah baby- i want to say rotten stuff OUT LOUD to someone tht knows it, feels it and agrees - and just get that rotten old satisfaction of being heard.
it's jerky- admittedly- one of these years i'lll be all ZEN and never feel the need to yak up that particular hairball (over and over and over)
