...well I kind of know her. Let me share this amusing anecdote...

I work in a salon and this woman comes in all the time. She is notorious for dating LOTS of men at the same time. Married, single...it doesn't matter to her. Anyway she's chattering away about her newest guy. She mentioned where he worked, his age (my ears pricked up at this point) and then finally his name!!!! My coworker's jaw dropped <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />. I am looking a her in the mirror shaking my head "no" (I can now laugh at this, lol).
I wonder if I should tell him?? We're on pretty good terms. On the other hand, it might be nice for him to get a taste of his own medicine <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

All I could think was how happy I am with my life now.

LOL, yeah you're probably right. I have a feeling this one will probably burn itself out. Then again, maybe they're perfect for each other!!
Too, too funny <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

You should have told her to tell him that his ex-wife said "Hi". LOL!

I'd save that one for the next appointment, FB. If the girlfriend starts talking about Bluerskies' ex, then she should speak up.

The girlfriend will then spend the entire day wondering what she may have said in the last two months in the salon! LOL.

LOL!!

Suggest things to do for/with X-- all the things that he doesn't like!!!!!


I do not blame the xwh for his affairs and abandoning our marriage. He fulfills 90% of the Cleckley Criteria

I forgive him for his insanity and I forgive myself for being gullible to his charms.

WOW! You're right that is way wierd!

Hmmm.... so many options on what to do...

Maybe the waiting until she starts making comments about the X-wife? And then saying that you know the X-wife really well and start describing how wonderful she is and how her WH didn't appreciate her?

Wow - again! Probably just playing it cool - keeping your ears open and mouth closed - would be the best option. Just let her babble on for however many more salon appts. it takes her to realize LOL. OK, it might be fun to ask her an occasional question about the relationship, how they met, what's the X-wife like, etc. Dudette, I know I'd be encouraging her to schedule salon appts. more frequently LOL

Were you the one working on her hair?!? Because I don't knwo if I could handle that sort of temptation! LOL I mean accidents DO happen ya know... Oops - I am SO SORRY ma'am, I thought you wanted me to give you a military buzz-cut... and this bright red (raggedy Ann) hair color didn't come out as you pictured? Nope, I'm afraid I'd have to let some other person take that customer.

LOL, no I didn't work on her. I was nworking next to he, and my friend who was working on her nows everything. It was a hoot. I'm not gonna ask her anything--I'll just let her keep talking, and when she figures out who I am...it will be priceless.
They are a match made in heaven, lol.

I'd get the girl you work with to ask questions about the EX (you) and see what the g/f says...it will make the eventual revealing of you even more fun! LOL <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />
