I'm thinking he probably expects to get some type of repercussion over the ring when he gets home....so would ignoring it completely be good DBing? isn't one of the premises to do a 180 on what they expect you to do/you usually do?

hmmmmmm, now this is kind of a devious thought, but he knows I know, so by not saying a word, does that point out some things to him...I don't know, maybe:


HB has said that this type of response ... errrr, rather NO response may have a lot more "power" than confronting. She mentioned that her "not talking" about things that were very evident, scared her H more than anything. So...I'm thinking that your thoughts...as far as NOT saying anything about this just might work. YOU know your H best, of course!

If it was ME, I would definitely sabotage that lotion. For heavens sake ... what could he say? Do you know what happened to the lotion I had out in the garage??? Goodness no, he wouldn't dare! (At least mine wouldn't have!)

Again ... I have to laugh!! I caught a purchase that my H made at Cabela's (a year and a half ago) while on his way down to Ohio to the job he was working on. Guess what one of the things he purchased was?? Cherry body lotion!!! LOL! Of course, I didn't laugh... I confronted him . Do you know what he told me? That his hands were very dry and it was at the check out at the counter at Cabela's...so he just "picked it up". I then asked him if I could expect to see him returning home with it... he hemmed and hawed ... and finally made up ANOTHER excuse as to what he "did" with that lotion! Grrrrrrrrr!!!! Of course ... after reading YOUR thread, I can laugh NOW ...

Deb, I think you're doing awesome. Hang in there!
