...and tonight I learn the futility of having a boundary with no consequence. I had asked her to please not leave me alone overnight (again), and she had agreed. But tonight she texts me with the expectation that she will not make it home tonight (she's "still going" and having too good a time).
And so far her A has had absolutely no consequence to her. If it weren't such an awful idea I'd be tempted to out her and the OM on Facebook as having been in this A since last November. As it is, she and I promised the MC last Tuesday not to discuss anything D or R for two months-- which is fine for giving me the opportunity to job-hunt, but just atrocious when it comes to dealing with these lonely, lonely nights and yet another broken promise from her. But she doesn't care; as sandi pointed out in the WW post, all she cares about is how she feels right now.
I had the inspiration to look at Meetup and see what's going on around town. It looks as though I'll be able to keep myself busy every night of the week next week with some fun stuff, and I'll find out soon enough if I crash and burn due to having to do it by myself.
