AMM:
I'm with WAT on this one...
Besides, JL isn't close 2 your age at all. I hear tell that his mom sat behind Jesus in the third grade!
I think your remark about viewing crushes as not romantic oppor2nities is interesting. I hope HTW can do something like that. I think it's possible that many people have crushes that remain "innocent" because they don't act on them and let them fade (I used 2 do that before d-day - now I don't think I have them at all, much).

I said "closer" 2long! Most of these folks are young 'uns. And I'm older than you think ... or is it my memory of JL that I "remember" him younger??? My point, exactly.
I think crushes are a statement of US, not a statement about the other.

memories of his face are already distorted You should have seen his face after two bird bath sized margaritas. Or was that his face or my eyes? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> WAT

HA! Nope, no margarita baths - just the "supersize me" version at that TexMex joint we ate at in Greenbelt almost exactly 5 years ago. We were both younger then. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hi JL! (Old Friend)! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> And despite all the good advice and wisdom he's given me over the years I don't have a crush on him either. I'm sure he's glad to hear that! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

If Mel knew I was having an affair <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
I fully EXPECT her to
A. hunt me down and beat my azz
B. contact my H and tell him
and she KNOWS my real name, has seen my pix and can find me
I trust her
and it goes both ways
if Mel was having an A ... I'd report her to the Texas ranger known a LONGHORN ... and trouble would ensue
Pep Me too ('bout Mel and Longhorn). And scarier still, I'm just down the road from 'em both (everything in Texas is down the road). As someone who loves Jen, I wish I'd thought of it myself. I probably could've hunted her last name down....and the Wookie would've TOTALLY understood that Long Distance call. BTW Mel - The Wook's not much of a 'puter guy. I tell him about my cyber friends, and he knows how much Jen has helped me. I told him about what happened between her and OM and how paralyzed she was about telling her dh...then 2 weeks later I told him what steps you took to help Rob. His response, "GOOD!" Thought you should know....

I don't have a crush on JL either. He's old enough to be my FATHER.
Not really. We're very nearly the same generation but I still don't have a crush on him.
The situation as it stands with Rob and I. We are definitely staying married. I have to work to regain his trust again. I'm kicking myself for being so stupid again (ie being charmed by the OM again). It's ironic, I was totally, totally indifferent to the OM when I bumped into him again. What turned my head again was his obvious pursuit of me.
It felt very, very good to tell him I wasn't going down any A path again with him.
Rob is still upset and hurt but I'm doing all I can to help him. We haven't had much A talk in the last few days, it was a long weekend here and I'm still not very well.
I know you guys care. It was just that I was really quite hurt to be removed. Add some alcohol (as usual) and I rush into print.
Interesting thing about crushes. My crush on the OM lasted all of my marriage. That's not a good thing and if anyone is having those "what if..." thoughts they need to take a good hard look at themselves.

BTW, Mel, neither of us regret you calling. That was not the issue here.

Thanks everyone.
Oooh, another thing. I've changed my work hours. I used to work 8.00am to 4.30pm. Now I do 8.30am to 5.00pm. VERY little chance of bumping into OM.
One more thing. I scrapbooked Rob's baby pictures (v.cute) over the weekend. It was a message to him that I hope wasn't lost on him.

How does a half hour make such a difference? I am just curious (nosy). <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Neak, the OM knew my routine and made sure he was on the road the same time as me. I've ordered a cool book on page ideas from the States, Kimmy, but it hasn't arrived yet. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I'm planning my wedding pages. I still have my wedding dress and I'm going to cut off some of the lace and use it on the page. Those pages will be the profoundest message of all to Rob.
