NYG,

I am baaack! Sorry to have been MIA for a while....had a long birthday weekend and then swapped at work.

My forehead hit the desk when reading about you scoping out OW's office location. That is a big NO-NO! Imagine this: The secretary will tell the OW that "some lady came by asking about your office..." Then the OW will know this and will tell W. Don't give them the satisfaction of this at all.

This isn't the action(s)of someone who is detached. Still hanging onto the rope, even if it's indirect. Plus OW isn't worth a sh1t! Don't give her any head space or even your attention at all.

I think middle school-aged girls have detachment waaaay better than some DBers here! Some of them can get real mean and cold then their "exes" come running back to them. I think we all could learn (or re-learn) from them.

The OW is NOTHING. Really. Just a pond scum who is beneath you. Don't you ever dare to step on her floor ever gain.

I assume this is the best way to respond. Or is it?


Excellent. Way to go! Yep, just the facts ma'am.

[NYGal]Then she said, "Don't know if it was u who left the yellow daisies and the coffee made but it sure was a nice welcome home. Thank you." To which I replied 2 1/2 hours later. "you're welcome." [/quote]

I'm LOVING this!!!! Way to go, NY. That is brilliant DBing right there. grin
