Kay,

Have you delievered a Plan B letter? I don't know your story except you in H-town.

As BR says, never believe anything as WS says untill you know for sure the A is over, NC letter sent, etc. It is all babble.

When you hear from your WH, be nice. That is it. NO LBing, just nice. DON'T call him, unless you have to over something major with kids.

Good luck with school.

Good morning everyone. The move went well, but now I'm depressed. I miss my 3000 sq. ft. house, we're now living in a 1100 sq.ft. 2 bdr. apt. I have the dining room, boxes packed everywhere. It's so crowded my 2 greyhounds are sleeping on top of me!!
How are all of you, dear friends?
The move was SO hard for me, I cried 2 days solid. It made everything seem so final, even though I know it isn't. WH has been calling a lot. How do you like that, now that I don't need him he starts to call!!
WHERE IS THE LOGIC?

I need a little encouragement that I will make it through this. My 15 yr. old son is so ANGRY about everything...the move, his dad not being there, on and on.
Hormones.
More hormones with 12 and 10 year old blossoming girls.
I just want to go away for a quiet weekend, and sleep for the whole time.
Just venting. I'm going to make it, and God is going to see me through.
I'll update you later on WH.
Maybe he's coming out of the fog?
I don't have a pc right now...Wh took it, and our nice t.v. to his efficiency apt.
Will post when I come.
I love and miss all of you.

I went up to get the number and saw, ouch, raised the prices to $185!! I sent an email to them to see if they have any recommendatons for people in my area, so I'm going to hold off for a little bit.

Going Crazy,
I know what you mean about the money. Did you get any reply about good MB counselors in your area?
KK
P.S. WH called my pager 4 times this morning and left messages. He even called my school where I teach looking for me. He wanted to come over and work on my computer and help me with some moving boxes and stuff (unpacking!).
I don't know what to think yet, I'm being VERY cautious. Maybe the fog is lifting?
I'll keep everyone updated.
he even mentioned a place in the country where we might be able to get a house on an acre for a good price.
What is he up to????

Spacecase says: And by the way, the "rule" is that when there IS contact during Plan B, your behavior should be Plan A behavior. Deposits $LB and shows the WS that your Plan A was NOT an act. Reinforces the idea that the spouse is someone worth being with.

Interesting, Steve told me not to do plan a behavior, but just be kind of "business like"

KK says: What is he up to????

BEWARE .... who knows yet. I like Brable Rose's approach " What are you going to do to make me trust you ? What is your plan for rebuilding our M?" When his plan matched my needs, when his actions matched his words, then they got back together.

I 've seen it posted on these boards for WH to call Steve so he can determine if WS is sincere.

God Bless,

D.

PS I am trying to keep my house (not sure if it will work out - financially we are devastated from business loss.) I know that must be so hard for you to go through. God WILL get you and your kids through this.

Definitely stay cautious, I could count numerous times that my WH would talk about "we can do this and we can do that", then I got sucked right in like a begging child, WHEN, I want it now, etc. Then it would turn him away again. I would maybe just kind of say, oh that sounds like a good deal, and switch the subject. I am hoping the fog is lifting with my WH, I have not interfered, they have lived together 18 months, I'm hoping its died a natural death, I just let it be and let them LB each other (I heard they fight all the time).
