OK, All this showing of love has brought me out for a tad.
Thanks holdingon, Cathy and Pam!
Quote: Although no one thinks the OW situation is at all funny, when we finally get to the point that we can step back and find the situation funny, and have a grin about it, well, I think that is progress. Being stuck in the muck and mire of the ugliness of all of it is just TOO grim.
Laughing AT OW... well, I don't see that happening. And calling names is just a way of relieving tension. We ALL know and have been told numerous times that the OP is just a symptom... well, like rectal bleeding, that symptom can make you miserable!!
I knew the people here that are close to me would understand! Hugs and kisses!
On another thread that was started today, I was accused of things and I don't have any idea where that person came up with it!
Anyone that knows me here, knows I have said MANY times that I feel sorry for my H's OW, she will only get hurt in the end, just like me! I don't call her or write her letters. I leave her in her own world to deal with my H.
As for being bitter; I'd say 95% of us that have a S that has cheated on us are bitter, heck yeh, not only is it degrading for us, but we live in he?? most of the time.
Yes, sometimes in chat and a few times on my thread I call the OW; the dead kitty because of her business. I'm sure I've been called names behind my back, and not to my face.
I beleive we are a family here, of course some of us don't see eye to eye. But must we attack each other, like it is a war. MY GOD!
holdingon, you are so right, we do blow off steam and vent. I thought that was why this place existed. Maybe someone should post the new rules here. I also believe in loyalty, loyalty to people here on the BB. Sometimes I may cross over the line, but I try not to unless provocked!
I try to help people here, pump up their PMA. And I'm glad that I have helped some people here. but I guess I can't make everyone happy.
I choose NOT to reply on the other thread, that is below me. Believe me I REALLY wanted to! I feel Pattie and I have done nothing wrong. Everyone has their opinion. And I think wonder and Ellie made good points on that other thread! Thanks girls!
I know the one thing I love about this place is the support I get! I would say most people would not come here if they were verbally attacked about something they say! United we stand, divided we fall!
Sometimes I do "tell it as I see it" But I hope I have never "dressed" someone down, for something I think was inappropriate. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can and do hurt people!
Thanks you three, because right now the worse thing I could do is run to my cave licking my wounds!
