Boy Merrick sounds like she is already f---ing opening up to you. I wish she would watch her f---ing language though. Is the other man a f---ing sailor or what? Dang Im waiting for you to tell me her head is f---ing spinning and she is throwing up green puke. I think its time for an exorcism.

I feel for you Merrick, its all the more reason to disconnect and take in some convo and coffee. Nothing wrong with it, you deserve to have some adult convo and good interactions with someone else. Your so right in that you can control yourself and use restraint, just tell yourself no other R until the R your in now moves in one direction opr the other. If the other w wants something from you tell her the same. Be open and sincere on this from the start with her and she will understand. I know with my sitch I was to the point I just started to not care anymore about what my actions would mnean to her. I was myself and did what I wanted to do for me. When she saw me retreayt from being her yes man she freaked out. Beware of this and use your head if this happens to you. Be prepared. I wish you good luck and happiness in whatever you do Merrick. I know you will find it somewhere around the corner. Hang in there and KOFTGF. God Bless, Eddy
