Did anyone see W&G late nite???

WH and I watched it...I sat and watched and thought jez, Grace is saying the same things I've said for months. This week I took my W ring off - her reason was it stood for love and fidelity and since he cheated it meant nothing - basically the same reason I took mine off (have since put it back on - I didn't cheat - I'm still holding up my end of the M)

I couldn't believe WH just sat there and watched wonder if he tought - this was his life flashing before his eyes too..He never flinched..Still in the fog..It's amazing how they can block it out.

At the end - even though Grace thought she could forgive - she couldn't and walked out...wonder who will do that in our house????

I saw that while I was at the Gym on the tread mill. Couldn't hear it had to read the screen. Very Ironic for me. I was hoping WW was watching it she loves that show. But then I though it wouldn't do any good anyways all she would hear when they decided to get back together is BLAH BLAH BLAH....

ITHURTS, I watched it. I actually haven't watched that show for a while, but for some reason turned it on last night. H wasn't home so I watched it alone.

I thought they did a pretty good job of depicting the pain of the BS and the remorse of the WS. You're right, so many of the lines I'm sure have been said by a BS or the WS. When her H said something like, "I never did this to hurt you", I realize that I still have trouble with that statement. In my case I think how could you have not known screwing another woman for 7 or 8 months would hurt me?

D-day happened for me last January. I never thought of taking my wedding ring off. For some reason yesterday afternoon, out of the blue, I slipped that ring off my finger and put it in my jewelry box. It's like I want to see what it feels like with it off my finger. So the part where she took her ring off also hit me. My H probably won't even notice. CV

Me and my WW watched it. I kept looking over at her wanting to say "see what may happen if you come crawling back." But I didn't say anything. I hope something sank into her head.

haven't watched the show in a real long time but it was also on at the gym last night. i wasn't even watching that particular TV but when what i was watching went to a commercial i glanced at another TV and saw grace talking to the H and then pointed to the wedding band (i started to read the subtitles at this point). well i wasn't sure he had cheated on her but just assumed that because i hadn't watched the whole show and it saddened me to think i just can't get away from this stuff. also was sad that her H wanted to work on things or at least that's what his lines were and was again sad because my H has never even said anything like that. by the time i found out the M was over in his eyes and he never even pretended to want to try.

as far as the rings, well IMO i want to be the adult and have more integrity then my H. if i toook off my ring then to me i would be stooping to his level and i refuse to do that. i am still married and i will continue to wear my ring until i'm no longer M. even then i might wear it for awhile just to ward off any new R as was suggested by SH (to wait at least 3-6months afterwards). i don't know if i can wait that long but at least i think if i had my ring on that would ward off any unwanted advances (at least that's what you would think).
