I have always thought the lottery question was a good indicator of where you really stood in your relationship. What would you do if you suddenly found yourself a millionaire?

Take my poll and leave me your comments too!

Thanks.

Of course I haven't won! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" /> Do you actually think I would be wasting my time talking to the little people on a website if I won? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

By the way, I voted that I would split the $$ and go my own way, but I know my spouse would want to stay together and enjoy our new life together. What does that tell you? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Thanks for taking the poll and posting! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

It may be inconceivable for her to be thought of as the 'bad guy' in any situation by people whose opinion she cares about the most.

The fear may be greatest with regards to some family members that she may have pissed off and who (once the truth is known about her A's) will run with the truth and display it to as many people as they can, to show what a hypocrite she is.

Remember that unremorseful WS's have lied not only to their BS's but to family and friends as well, but unlike their BS's who have to endure with them before divorcing them, those same people can simply shut their doors instantly and not talk to the WS's for a long,long time.

Well I'd probably not let the WS know until I knew he was interested in me broke first! Then once he came out of the fog, and home, I would share it with him whole heartedly!
