Mel,

Are you doing anything for the big game? I haven't dug back into your posts yet, so if you've already mentioned it, I apologize.

I invited a friend of mine over to our place to watch the game with me. He's the husband of one of my wife's friends and he and his wife have been going through the same kind of crap we all are who are here. His wife and mine enable each other.

We are going to forget about our wives for the evening, eat what WE want, drink what WE want and generally have a GREAT time!

I miss being close to my wife, but I know I can't just put my life on hold til she returns emotionally. I hope you know that for yourself, too. I really think the best thing for all of us to do here is to press on. We have a destination to reach. Maybe our spouses have decided that destination isn't for them. In that case, we mourn the death of our relationship with them and then move on. Maybe they see us pulling away and then decide they do want to travel with us. Maybe they watch us go and never say a word. I don't know. But I DO know this, I can't stop my journey. I will continue... with or without her.

You seem like a great girl. I really wish your husband would pull his head out. If only he could see who is waiting for him.
