Gabe,

What a scene! Must have been a little embarrassing. Good job on keeping calm. My 1st XW still lays into me like that on occasion. I know how that kind of thing can hang with you and get the adrenaline pumping a little longer than necessary. Hopefully you just blew it off as coming from a woman who currently doesn't have her act together at all. Funny how the WA struggles.

Well Gabe, not a great way to have a 10 year anniversary. Hope you find a fun distraction.

OCKIM, excellent post. I wonder how many truly completely abandon hope. But it seems to run with a lot of the advice...get a life, detach, quit pursuing...if there is any hope that they will come back. I think giving up any hope is difficult, but for starters a person should at least not let the WA/X know you have any hope.
