A few of my 180's have been to start going out to a club with my friend. H was always telling me to do it and I never wanted to. Now I go and have a great time! I've also started talking about planning a vacation at the end of the summer (just me and the kids). This really made him sit up and take notice. He was always the one to plan our <a href='http://consumeralertsystem.com/cas/zx-hclick.php?hid=108' target='_blank'>vacations</a>, and it seemed to catch him off guard.

I thought about having W over to the house to discuss plans for D13 the rest of the way until school starts. Then at a pre-planned time, have someone (like Anna maybe) call the house, I'll tell the W "I'll just let it go to Voice Mail". Then after my outgoing message plays, the caller can start to leave a message (maybe in a sultry tone) like "Hi (DMF) this is XXXXX, I just wanted to call and thank you for..." Just then I pick up the phone and say, something like, "Hey, whats up?...Oh yeah?...Hey, can I call you back?, I'm in the middle of something...OK bye." Then make no reference to the call and look back at W and say, "Sorry, where were we?"
Dodger - There used to be a woman here who did just that very thing with her H. They'd been separated 18 months and he was still on the fence. She started making it APPEAR she was dating (she wasn't) by arranging to have a male friend (unknown to H) call while she knew H would be there. She planned to go out of town for a weekend and had to drop off something to H first - made sure he saw her suitcase and a very dressy evening dress on a hanger in the trunk of her car. Had flowers sent to herself with a card signed by a guy. It worked for her - H came racing back.
That would be something, huh? I picture it like it was a scene from a movie. I can see the look on her face when I say, "I'm sorry about that, so anyway..."
I would almost want to set up a couple of hidden cameras so I could watch it again when I was a little down. That's how classic I think it would be.
Trust me, the "D" in DMF doesn't really stand for Devil, I swear.
I need 180 Help. Wish to find a Woman who knows how a Professional Man would look. Kinda like Female Professional Eye for the Straight guy. I need to soften my image a little. Fixing Marines in the jungle and desert too long. Looking to get back to the corporate world.
The plan is to go to some fairly good clothing shops and find out what looks good and does not. Then go to inexpensive stores to purchase similar color schemes and items cause this D did not leave me overflowing with $$$.
Will be challenging due to color blindness and mannerisms.
Trust me. OK bring your mom and crazy brother along but I really do need the expert opinions. This is not a back door way to get dates.
Last trip to the corporate HQ where I used to work I scared people who did not know me. Even after I opened doors and yes sirred and mammed them ensured they went first and other polite things. I smiled lots too.
My STBX states when I walk in people know. I guess I am used to walking to a room full of Marines who all are tougher than me.
Currently work construction so little interaction with the better looking sex. Suggestions?

ha ha...I've thought about the same thing. Or I've thought about sending some emails back and forth, as apparently my H is checking my emails. It is a little devious, but very very tempting. Q is...will it spark a ? with them or make them get mad...they are so tempermental!
