I have a moblog where I post camera picks of my friends etc. My WW just wrote an email regarding one of the pictures of a girl name Beth. Concidently, Beth happens to be the name of an ex girlfriend of mine.

My WW wrote a scathing email saying that she couldn't believe I was back with my ex- girlfriend. She goes on to say how it has reopened a lot of old wounds for her because I was dating Beth just as I started going out with my WW. Of course the girl in my moblog is not my ex-girlfriend, but someone else with the same name.

She goes on to say that she thinks I'm seeing my ex-gf on purpose to get back at her and she is miffed. She does say that she is not jealous, but that the pictures opened up old wounds. My WW is still with the OM.

I want to respond, tell her it's not my ex-gf and that it is just a friend. With my WW saying that the pictures bring back negative feelings is she just trying to justify her affair with the OM? It seems my WW dwells on trying to find negativity in our marriage to make her feel that the affair was the right thing to do. Is this normal?

It sounds like she believes you are doing the 180 plan. Interesting... even though you are not. Maybe you should ride this out for a while and see where it goes. Well, see where it goes if you are interested in getting her back.
