Thanks IHJ! I certainly will be posting on the board. And you are right, I need to keep my thread updated. Maybe I'll jump over there now. But first, sending M&M's your way. Yummy
Honeypot, that is too funny about the catfish. Can't remember where you are from but I'm guessing the South. Poor H. At least you were able to laugh it off.
I suspect she won’t be too happy with you posting so much about her on this board, much less in private emails Huh? Then what is the point of this board Dad (I mean Cobra) Thanks for informing us of the dangers, but I think were are full grown intelligent adults who can make our own choices. In fact, comments like that are exactly why I wanted to take this off the boards.
LFL...Cobra has a point. I think if I found emails from another woman, even if she's from a marriage website, even if it's long distance, even if she is trying to help, etc, I would still be hurt. But that's me.
Hmmm... I was thinking the same thing, LfL, and your snippy response to cobra confirms it. He hit a nerve, didn't he? Clearly the flurry of emails between you and glob is a potentially touchy issue. Ask yourself why. Ask yourself why you reacted so defensively to cobra's comment.
"Full grown intelligent adults"? Given your sitch and glob's sitch, is taking this to private emails the most grownup, intelligent way of handling the clear chemistry that you two have discovered between you? Yeah, we can all see the chemistry, so don't act like you haven't noticed it, okay?
Don't forget, I'M the one who believes men and women CAN be just friends... but the question is can you and globule be just friends if you keep on the path you're currently on?
Points noted Lil. All true. Sincerely, sorry to have caused such a ruckus. You have all been very helpful to me over the months but I think I need to sign off. Good luck everybody.
Don’t go away. I value your comments very much. I made my statement to help, nothing more. I am not passing judgment, nor do I think anyone else is either. And I think the fact that both you and Globule are starved for affection is quite clear. We feel that too. We are all in the same boat. But you know that can’t work. So please keep posting!
LfL, there was no ruckus! Why would you say that? And please don't take your marbles and go home. There's no need for that. Ok, so you're a bit embarrassed... all of us here are dealing with touchy personal issues. Our hot buttons are on the outside for all to see. That's part of the benefit of this board.
But you are completely anonymous, as is everyone here, so we can be honest in a way that is practically impossible IRL. Stick around... if you feel you need to cool it for a few days, then do so, but don't go away. Blackfoot was going to bolt, too, but he changed his mind. A few times I've gotten my feelings hurt, or got into a tug-of-war with someone and vowed never to return. But this is a unique community, and your contribution to it is and has been unique and irreplaceable. So is globule's.
The thing I learned in the Undefended Love workshop is that when things heat up, my first line of defense is "I'm Outta Here!" You remind me so much of ME! That's one of the things I like about you.
Fried catfish most have been the food of choice last night. My H and youngest love it the rest of us hate it. So last night we had a choice fried chicken or fried catfish.
HP,
Pumpkin ravioli? wow I thought I was being daring today testing out the pumpkin butter at work. Which turned out to be ohhh so good. I recomend for anyone who likes pumpkin pie to find a little market and stock up on the pumpkin butter. Did anyone else enjoy the pumpkin ravioli? I am always looking for something to do with all the inners of all the pumpkins the kids carve.

You and my wife both, Chrissy. She loves pumpkin anything...and right now is about the time of year she'll be raiding the specialty stores, looking for a supply of pumpkin butter to carry her over 'till next year. I've never seen pumpkin ravioli, and I don't think she has either, but I'd lay even money she'd like it if she ever had any.

That's one of the things I like about you.
