""Wookie"".....whos that???

Wookie is my dh (used to be wh, but even the f in fwh is offensive now....now he's just a dear).

Sorry for the TJ Saenz....BTW one of my best girlfriend's last name is Saenz. I think of her every time I see your screen name.

When the Wookie was a wayward, he still loved me and wanted to be with me....he just didn't feel like he'd ever be worthy again. Perhaps your wayward is feeling the same?

The only thing about that is that it's really hard to reassure them that they can be worthy again. See, they've built up lies, so they think EVERYONE lies...comprende? They color everyone else with the same crayon they used on themselves and cannot see that not everyone is the same as them (it's part of the fog).

Consistancy on your part is the key. Being strong, being consistant about your own convictions and it does penetrate their fog.

que bueno compa!!

like the words of the great KANSAS song..."carry-on my wayward son"...

YOU dont change a thing your doin....just roll with whatever she does and keep DOIN whatever your doin, cuz whatever your doin is doin it job and your DOIN fine!!!! (you get the point) <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

take the kiss...take whatever, but keep it in perspective...it sounds like you AINT the only one on the famous "rollercoaster"..

This is exactly the kind of stuff my WW has been saying. I'm glad I looked at this thread. This paragraph just raised my happiness bar a notch. Thanks!

hey no problem thats what we're here for. to help one another threw these tuff and crazy times.

i think my W is worried that i would slip into the same fog i was in the past year or two, but i didn't know i was i n a fog till she told me.

also doesn't she see she is in the same fog and how do i know that she would never stray again?

we just believe one another and just help each other threw this and the rest of the future fogs but who knows. ho wshe really feels.

If it's any consolation, they all say that. If I had a dime every time the Wookie said it, I'd own a house in the Dominion (fancy schmantzy subdivision here - all the basketball players live there).

Kimmy,

Me thinks I know where you are. I lived there for 9 years. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Let's see, city ranked in the top 10 in the nation population wise? Major tourist attraction downtown with boats?

Hey saenz,

You W is still in the fog. After reading so much on this forum I have come to the realization that almost all WS's say they don't know if they are "in love" with the BS. That statement right there means she is still in the fog. I hope you can get her out of it b/c it is useless working on the M while she's still there.

I hope dinner goes well. Don't try too hard. Just be yourself. Don't pretend to be someone you're not and if you're anything like me, watch the LBs!! I think you and I have that personality trait in common <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />.

Give us the update and best of luck.

Most importantly, ENJOY YOURSELF!!
