Well, My H had a pair of shoes that he bought when I was with him while we were out of town one weekend. Later I found out that he ended up spending that very same night with the OW at a golf tournament. We came home for a wonderful weekend (or at least I thought it was), and he had to leave right away for this golf tounament! Every time I saw those shoes it brought back that memory -- and he was with me when he bought them!! Talk about crazy. I told him how it made me feel. He continued to wear them to work around yard. When he took them off in the house, I'd throw them out into the garage.
He also jacket, shirts, pictures, etc. from these golf tournaments -- celebrity golf tounaments. He had to get rid of them. I insisted. There was one really nice windbreaker that he wanted to keep, but it had the logo of the OW's company embroidered on it. He asked if it was okay to keep the jacket if he got the logo off. I said okay. So he spent a couple of hours one Saturday morning with scissors carefully cutting the threads to remove that darn thing. Kinda have to laugh about it now. The thing was that he willingly discarded things that made me feel unhappy.
I can also relate to Orlando. That was the place of their last time together. They had been there for a convention. I still have a hard time thinking about Orlando. We'd been there as a family the year before and had such a wonderful time.
Then, of course, there's the beach community where the skag lives. We've gone there for long weekends and the kid's spring break for 15 years. My kids learned how to ride the bikes there!! It still hurts to think about him going to her house while we were all there having such a good time. Now, I also associate the state where the EA lives with bad memories. It's just all really crazy.
