No I never considered the Dali Lama himself. We had an MC here and reading SAA they both coincided on one thing - as long as there was still contact and the affair was ongoing, counseling was a waste of time. Gemela went to IC but we dropped MC. I have not written it off but I want to see some commitment from gemela before I spend any time or money on it.
Just curious about one thing though. Since it is Thanksgiving Day in Canada, what is it that you guys are actually thankful for? In our case it was getting away from religious persecution, bad teeth, bad haircuts and bad food. What is Canada's excuse?

....I am wondering about your Lovebanks... My love bank was cleaned out by bandits - including the safety deposit boxes and I have since discovered that it was not covered by the FDIC.

Maybe not being part of the US or France - That would be something for Canada to be thankful for?

When I asked him what was wrong he told me he hated for me to see him this way meaning in bed & sick, weakened. Broke my heart. I know what you mean, Nams...dads want their little girls to think they can always count on them..... hard to admit when they're not up to it! Actually.....I do have another MAN I can count on in my life......since WS has gone off his merry way.... and that is, datadatara.... MY B R O T H E R..... I will limit myself to the bare minimum about him.... he lives in the same town as my parents....has a little family....with three beautiful kids....a very demanding job.... so again.....the best way I can help my brother is to help ME..... I LOVE MY BROTHER! .....were I to ask..... he'd be there for me in a flash! ....when people love you....they can be very vulnerable.... they COULD easily be manipulated..... and I take this responsibility very seriously....and don't want to abuse..... I make sure I do not ABUSE those that love me... that is how I love them back! .....right now, this is what separates me from my WS...... ...I don't have sisters....so I don't know what I am missing..... but I had a terrific brother....two years older.....we did not fight as children.... we were 'complice' in facing the challenges of growing up.... plays the 'big brother' protector role to a T! ....he's cute....funny.....terrific with kids (not just his!)..... just fun to be around....he's not perfect...has many faults (which unfortunately I can count on my SIL to point out!)....but I am so proud that HE'S MY BROTHER! ...the greatest gift those that I love have given me....when I think of them?..... a big smile and this great big warmth in my heart! ...and the feeling that I am the richest person on earth!

I cannot send you an email because it goes against a very good guideline. If you and ToddAC can come to an agreement, I can send him the URL and he can email it to you. You two just let me know. ....I see....Todd is your mailman, now....and it's OK for him to break the rules.....Geesh! It's OK....Pio....I think Todd has enough to handle already....LOL! Let's just say....I missed the boat...

Hi Luna. My wife is working late this week so I can keep company a little. How is your dad? Hi BigK...thanks for asking... ...well..he's not a 'phone' person....but according to mom, nurses are still coming everyday to check up on the wound from his August operation.... they need to heal it before starting treatment because a side effect may be vomiting...and that would mean trouble if the wound has not healed enough..... knowing my dad...these things will tend to get him 'depressed'.... BigK....what was the big occasion on the photos? ...unless the boys dress up like that every day! I am not sure, Pio...I am not an 'authentic' Canadian....only 'neutralized'...... wait until we get to Halloween....what's up with the pumpkins??!!!! I have not written it off but I want to see some commitment from gemela before I spend any time or money on it. Pio...please read me again that last sentence.....that's what's called an: EXCUSE not to do it! ...I liked talking to Steve...he does a very good job of de-dramatizing....I certainly would encourage you to consider it if you have never talked to him! ...I found his plans very simple....just a couple of things to not lose sight of....but, of course....he's not in the business of MIRACLES! ...my WS is into a Romantic Affair...they are a tough cookie to deal with for a BS..... WS wants the fairytale image of love of his adolescent years to be true, AT ANY COST..... the only 'remedy' is to let REALITY sink in..and for me...to keep away!

My wife's affair had a high level of emotional attachment. She felt that "buzz" with OM she used to feel with me.

Good morning! It's a beautiful fall day here in CT.
Thank you for the B-day wishes. My age is no secret, I'm 49. Older, wiser, better every day.
It's been a quite night here, rather subdued, except for Luna & her holiday. I love Thanksgiving food, so comforting. Plus my sister takes care of most of the Thanksgiving meal so that makes it extra nice. I do Christams so I serve candy canes, red & green M&Ms, ribbon candy & such. My kids are usually pretty happy about that. The bonus is there's no big clean up provided they don't get sick.
You wait just one minute there BigK! Canada should give thanks for not being part of the U.S.! Humph! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> They're pretty happy about flocking down here to FLA. during winter. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Gawd Luna, that's the same thing ex wants, the newsness of infatuation to last for ever. He said to me once during one of our fruitless discussion about why a third person can't be part of a marriage, I want the kind of love that I think of the person ALL day, can't wait to come home, where all we do think about is each other. I wanted to punch him in his stooopid, dreamy, far off face. IDJIOT!

Luna - It was my son's football presentation - I posted it - you've been skimming haven't you? LOL Ooohhh...that was for THE PRESENTATION...where you have seen the last of OM?.....I don't skim.... but....I do believe it was the time I was seeing RED....not just red font like Todd..... BigK.....when I heard your OM was telling your son that HE needed to go to another league......I J U S T LOST IT! You see???.... it's happening again..... what a skum of a man!!!! GRRRHHH! ....I am not known to have a temper....so you can imagine.... you're OM must be hitting the 'mom tigress protective' button in me....GGGRRRRHHHH! ...anyway....the only good thing about it....inspite of the sacrifice your son will have to make... is that you and your son will no longer have to SEE him! ...I may need to borrow Todd's handcuffs to hold me BACK!

WOW Luna you were paying attention. LOL. OM's decisions have made it necessary for my son to go to another club. Even as dumb as OM is he would never have dared tell him to do that.
Hmm Luna - I might have to sponsor you on a trip downunder...
