I don't even know what to say, except you should apply for sainthood. There is no way I could tolerate that gold ornament on the tree. The FAMILY tree. She should hang it in her room instead. Or I could tell you where I REALLY think it should go...but I'm a nice girl. The mistletoe taped to the computer is weird, frank. Your wife is doing some strange things. I read about the mermaid towel, too, and how she and OM believe they were whales in a former life. frank, are you listening to this?? What does your counselor say about this to your wife? I've read some infidelity stories before but this is really taking the cake. It does seem that this won't last due to the geographical separation, and that is in your favor. I will keep praying for you and your family, and that OM stays selfish. Maybe that trip next year will fall apart before it even happens. Hang in there...
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
