I can't believe she told him that she contracted a STD from a toilet seat! That's the same excuse my xh used when he got mono the first spring after he left.
Lol - wait Job - he told you he got mono from kissing a toilet seat?????
Yes, my xh told me he contracted mono from sitting on a toilet seat! LOL! I just looked at him and burst out laughing because it was so funny that he thought I was going to believe that tale.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
Linda! Glad to read your update, even though it was something that took me by surprise today. What a manipulative POS. Seriously.
He is all.over.the.place. Apparently, he's still as confused as ever. He went from reconciling (flowers and the L word) to being ok with being friends and back to nasty again. How utterly smart you are to stay your good and happy course. I'm proud of you!
But it made me sad that your S30 felt guilty. What a good mom you are. Your boys sound awesome, and at least you know you were a great parent with them. And still are.
I'm sighing with relief about your eyes. That should make the hockey game a little easier to watch.
'Course you know I have a sweet spot for you and your sweetie, so I hope you have a VERY happy VD together. No toilet seat puns intended.
I'm waiting to get D20's volleyball schedule, and then I'm going to plan away. She said it will probably be closer to March 1, so I promise I'll let you know the travel schedule when I get it. We're going to try to make every match. Isn't that hilarious? It's probably your cue to buy airline and hotel stock. We're going to rip it up next fall and go out with a bang.
Hugs and LOTS of love, Betsey

Well, XH can have all the fermented oatmeal he wants in the world.
You've come out of this whole experience smelling like a dozen of freshly cut red roses. Your life is getting better and better while XH's continues on his downward spiral.
Holy cow V, your husband sounds like so many of the spouses we read about on here, cheating, lying, spending money like crazy, physically and emotionally abusive. He's just added gambling as an extra added attraction
Luckily no matter what our spouse's label - walk away, wayward, mid life crisis - our response is basically the same. To face up to and fix our own faults, become the best people we can be, and give them time and space they need to try to fix and heal themselves. Unluckily, they often don't seem to see the need.
Anyway, thanks!

Linda! How about another update? Did your ex go back to the Russian Tramp and her moldy oatmeal? Are you still dating your new guy? How are the eyes doing?
