MTH, the problem is that she is controlling your feelings or rather you are allowing her to do so. I know what it is like wanting your S to say the right thing and, guess what, it doesn't happen! So, you choose to be good to yourself or you choose to wallow in the unfairness of the sitch. It is unfair, no doubt! We still somehow expect these people to be fair and loving to us yet these are the same people who decided the R was over (forgetting to tell us) and who decided to step out on us and violate the most sacred vow they have ever taken. What kind of idiots expect them to be "fair" and "loving" in that kind of headspace!!! It's time to STOP giving her so much power, MTH. You must be for you now cuz if you aren't how can you expect your mate to be? Your S isn't gonna come back to a crying, depressed and angry you (although you do have a sharp, sharp wit ) What have you done to GAL lately? Let me know, I'd love to hear more about the new and amazing YOU! And if you haven't been, think about what you will do as of now. I do know your pain MTH, this piece of furniture has had the paint stripped off many times too!
