WH and I went to MC and WH said he wants to stay and work on the M! I'm stunned! I expected him to say he "didn't know" if he wanted to stay or not! I was getting ready for Plan B! And should I believe him? He also said the A was "over a year ago" but there was a message from OW on his cell a couple of weeks ago (sounding pathetic and depressed <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />). Now what do I do?

Well, I say this is a good sign! What does your gut say?

I know you're probably ready to do some cartwheels and cheers, but just try to stay cool, calm and collected!

I wish you the best! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

This is a good sign. Now you need to watch for actions. Words mean nothing. Stay calm, and loving, and see if he actually DOES anything.

Strungalong,

U R cute! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Btw with your gut instinct, get a plan. Can you call Steve or is your MC familar w/MB principals? Check out His Needs/Her Needs. It is now his time to show you why you should consider letting him come back. U r not t/d him any favors, he owes you BIG TIME!

(((Orchid))) Thanks for your help. I have been thinking about calling Steve. I have HN/HN and will reread it. Based on what I have read here, I'm not expecting any apologies. But we are making some very slow progress. Halelujah!
