That's really interesting, 2TH. Maybe I should try to take on your mindset on how you dealt with the first OMs. I think I can get there, I just need to move past the shock I think. I'll tell you though, I envy your ability to deal with them. I think my ego gets wrapped up in it, ya know? I think over time I tried so hard to work on myself (thankfully) and changed that I want her to see things in me and not an OM - not too much unlike yourself. I am aware that is not the best frame of mind to have and I am certainly trying to get beyond it.

I guess I have said a lot on here, too, that I get aggravated that after all of the wreckage she left behind with me and S she now gets to be swept off her feet and happy (though she may not be, who knows?). Again - it is my ego. I know that, and I know she may not be dancing on cloud 9 at the moment.
