Hey, hey guys:

Well, you all are welcome to use my thread to vent your frustrations at being lonesome anytime.Bruce, I am going to be in Austin for a conference in July (24-26)! Hey, any of you want to look me up in IC I can provide contact info.

I read Bulldogr's post on Wes' thread and man was that uplifting. I certainly think my W is having an MLC. Somedays, like this evening, she comes in with a completely different personality. And I know who it is. It is her male coworker, who is also having an MLC. I kid you not guys. It's very eerie. In fact, her hand movements, lip pursing, even the way she says our D3's name is a copy of this guy's mannerisms. In fact, when she does that I say to myself, "Oh, I guess T... (the male coworker) is here today". And when this character comes over (i.e. she comes over assuming that mannerism) it means things are not good for the sitch. I have learnt over time to deal with it. When this character is in play I start acting very gruff and standoffish. Sometimes I leave the room and do my own thing. I take my machoness up a couple of notches (yeah, yeah, yeah, I know it's easy to go from 0 to 2 on a scale of 10, but hey a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do). And I look her straight in the eye. And you know what, she switches personality. I am not making this up folks, it's true, I swear. Anyone else seen this? I know from the midlifeforum boards that this is not uncommon in MLCers. I believe that Snodderly has noted this also in some of her posts on MLCs.

Anyway, Wes and all, I am still pondering the mortgage issue. I am sitting still on it and the answer will come in the next day or so I hope. I am not averse to simply deleting her from the mortgage and letting go. We'll see.

The 3 laws of DBing: 1. PMA is critical to DBing. 2. Since drop in WAW's PMA leads to drop in LBS's PMA and vice-versa detachment is critical. 3. Validate to raise WAW's PMA and GAL to raise LBS's.
