Thank you, Bellevue! I'm hangin' in there to fight the good fight! The fight against evil! Infidelity! I am going to keep running into battle and when I am tired from fighting and can't stand up anymore, I am going to stand up and fight some more!! BTW-Have you ever seen The Fisher King? Oh, man, that's probably my favorite Robin Willams movie...as well as my favorite Jeff Bridges movie (though Starman was is up there, too.) I just started thinking about it a few minutes ago and I can see how elements apply to WS situations! Here's a bit of song for ya'... "I like New York in June... How about you? I like a Gershwin tune... How about YOU?!!" Yes, little gremlin is trying to get a song stuck in everyone's head again!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Well, I'm back from meeting my lawyer. I'm okay so far. I don't know how bad off I'll be on the morning of the hearing. I was thinking about posting my IM name here so if anyone wants to say hello, I'll have it on my phone but the phone on silent during the hearing.
I'm gonna need you guys!!

I have been trying to call you all afternoon but either get "system busy" or a fast busy. Can you try calling me at home?

If I can file a suit against the OW...should I?
Would it be TOO much?
Slander, defamation of character, mental cruelty, emotional distress, etc.

For my money, anything that turns up the heat in Fantasyland so that emotions over there begin to boil is a good thing. Having to hire an attorney to answer a lawsuit is a chilling thing to have to do. It’s not part of warm, fuzzy hugs, loving glances, rosy pink clouds and cotton candy and just everything wonderful. Fantasyland begins to develop rough edges and cracks, through which a cold, harsh reality begins to peek through. Cold and harsh are good things to happen to a Fantasyland.
Were I you, I’d smack her with everything I had in my armory.
She’ll blame you at first, but that will quickly change to questions going something like “…why did I ever get involved with this married guy to begin with?”
And so, Fantasyland died a horrible death and the adulterous pair came back to earth to live with what they had done. The End.

I'm starting to feel depressed. I guess this is it for H and me. I made the mistake of looking through the correspondence between us when we were dating and after.
I read the beautiful story he wrote to put in the paper after our wedding.
All of the beautiful cards he made me, special occasion or not.
Big mistake...looking at all of that.
But I was looking for "our story," the one he used to tell me almost like a bedtime story.
I feel like crap.

Charlotte,
Those fond memories can make you sad, but they can also carry you through this. He wasn't acting when he wrote those things. He hasn't won any Oscars, has he? Those times can still return. Hang in there. You've been doing all the right things, it just takes time and the effects are cumulative rather than an explosion.
As much as he is fogged out right now the day will come when he will remember those things too. Protect what you have left for that day.
Mark

I agree with Mark. This is a long way from "it"
"It" isn't over till YOU say it is.

Thank you, Mark. And thank you, Big K.
I know you guys are right.
I just feel so overcome with despair right now.

Thanks, Melody.
Here's how screwed up I am. My lawyer is a handsome fellow. Now I must avoid him so I don't develop a crush on him.
Knight in shining armor and all of that jazz. I think my brain is just looking for distractions so I don't think about H.
I never called that weirdo that's been stalking me by phone. At least he didn't call today. Gee, what the heck do I sound like by phone?
I was trying to call HR when I misdialed. I had my HR voice on.
I was so jumpy because of that I brought my grandpa's shotgun home with me. Now all I need is some rock salt.
