Well hers I guess when I call her mom and friends. More curious than really care. I doubt she would do that. Well unless I contacted her work which there is no reason to.

Please tell me you are kidding with this line of thinking?

My MIL just told me this was a possibility. I thought it was kind of funny too, but still curious if it had ever happened to anyone. Apparently not.

Okay, I am formulating a list. What do I do if he comes to the house to confront me? I am a little frightened. Should I let him in? Should I just judge that based on initially talking to him through the door?

Invite him in and offer him a beer and a smile! Don't let him bait you into a fight. If he gets angry, just tell him you love him dearly and will do what it takes to save your marriage. He will say "THEN THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO GO ABOUT IT!!!' blah, blah, blah... Then tell him you are so sorry he is upset, could he please take out the trash while he is there? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
