First, GH, thank you for that. You are right he has been thinking about me, apparently a lot.

So my H has contacted me several times by phone, e-mail and text while he has been gone. I haven't really talked about it at all with any of my close friends and I haven't posted anything because I'm not sure which way my H will ultimately sway and being the superstitious person I am I didn't want to jinx anything.

Which leads me to my real frustration. One of my closest friends found out that my H has contacted me since he left for his month-long trip and now she is mad that I have kept her in the dark. To be fair she asked if he had called and I gave a vague response that wasn't quite the truth and wasn't quite a lie.

But instead of being understanding about my reasons for keeping quiet she gave me a "yeah and those other things you've been superstitious about have really worked out for you."

Am I wrong here? Does she have a right to be pissed? Do I really need to deal with a childish friend when my marriage is at stake?

What's even more incredible is that she is having an A. Now I understand that it is her high school boyfriend and he is the love of her life and perhaps he shouldn't have gotten married and his W left and went back to her home country and hasn't really contacted him in months. But, it still is what it is, an A.

Anyway, this all makes me miss my H all the more. True friends are so hard to find and my H was (is?) my best friend.
