Keep Wearing Wedding Band?

[ForGump]

The alien must have been there all along though and was just freed by BD.

I was talking to a coworker going through her own M issues ... about the flip, about things seeming do good then being blindsided ... how could we be gettin it on hot & heavy one week and the next there's the BD? ... and she told me don't underestimate a woman's ability to repress all kinds of thoughts and emotions to try to make something (i.e., a relationship) work like she thinks it should.

So yeah, the alien -- all those frustrations and resentment and contempt -- were always there underneath it all.
