Jo,

I'm not sure those are up the alley Gabe had in mind. LOL I bet he will never get the opportunity to walk in on his ex-wife while she's on the toilet or leave his underwear on the floor until he wins her back (but after that he should probably avoid those things). Take a step back well before your H was an annoyance and consider some acts that were simple, but loving. Things that he did on dates that attracted you to him. That what you're asking Gabe?

Along those lines let me ask you something. For the most part when I go out with my ex, or ex + kids I pick up the tab. She does grab for it part of the time, but I generally pay (I'm in a much better place to afford it). Perhaps that is a turn-off to always (or almost always) pay? She used to pay half the time when we went out...perhaps I should return to that? But I'd be interested in some of those ideas myself.


In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
