I don't know if it is a full moon or something in the water but it seems like after making some progress( a nice email from my WW) every new day brings more heartache. Just got a report on her cell phone usage and while she says she has not contacted OM in over a month, I find every other day is more like it. I looked at my Spector pro report(which I have refused to do for the last 9 weeks) and found that emails are going back and forth 3-4 times weekly.

Got a call from my personal banker this am and was told that an old account , I had forgotten about, is almost $7,000.00 overdrawn and has not been paid in several months. I had to hand deliver a check to keep it out of collections. My next door neighbor, a good friend, says the deliveries from UPS with Saks , Neiman-Marcus and Nordstrom appear on almost a daily basis.

BTW, she is now ordering from Victoria's Secret, something she had never done during our marriage.

The rules here are only one person a week can quit, and I have this week. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Oh great, Victoria's Secret to add insult to injury.

I wish our spouses had tried with us as they do with OP.

Yep, as the scheduler here, you can give up next week. But not this week - this is my week.

But seriously, you have not been doing this long enough to give up. You gotta hang in there.

Victorias Secret, Saks etc. sound to me like she is not a happy camper.

Some women shop ;buy stuff to feel good when they are not feeling appreciated or admired or whatever.

Maybe all is not coming up roses between her and OM?

I would see this as a positive thing.

And the fact that she sent you the email.

I was trying to figure this out too. Why does he phone and text me with the I love you's and then I don't hear from him for a week..?

He doesn't have to call me.I don't call him. He could totally ignore me. But he calls.

I think it is a sign they are coming out of the other relationship, testing the waters with us.

Maybe.

I hope.

Think positive. God might be working on her. the fog might be lifting.

Is it just me, or is everybody having a bad week? Okay, this is the Infidelity area, we're always having a bad week. But where is the good news? I mean, like, NEW good news.

Cy, when they start to overdraw the bank accounts, it's just another sign that they've clearly gone bananas. WSes ought to be locked up, man.

Shul, how're you doing tonight?

Graycloud , thank you for asking.

I skipped out on church today , went shopping and spent alot of money on frivolous clothing.

(see post above)

I am miserable.

But I look good.
