Must be part of the script in the WS MANUAL.

My H left his whole closet full of clothes, too.

I think the RING is definitely a POSITIVE SIGN.

He had to FACE the REALITY of what he was doing. That's what PLAN B is all about..coming to grips with REALITY...


Hi mimi!!!!!!

That's funny!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I don't know what to do with them now. I guess I'll have to drag them over to my Doberman's! LOL!

I SO agree about the ring!! I'm glad you think so too!! I'm really excited about that!!

And the SHAKING!!! WOW!!! YIPPEEEEEEEE!!!!!

He didn't take his desk, though. And nothing out of his closet, either.

And he had a big ol' truck, too!! I don't get it.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I DO!!

He didn't take them cuz he doesn't want to have to load them up, and tote em off and then have to do it again soon cuz he knows he wants to come back!

And I totally agree that the ring was a very good sign. The shaking too cuz he's unsure of what the heck he's doing. That or he has a really bad hangover.


I love it, mopey!!! Great story!!! And it will come true!!! He DOES want to!! I just KNOW it!!

Wow, the ring!!! I'm still ridin' high on that!!! Wow. Just....WOW!

And the shaking....doubly doo da WOW!!!!

Charlotte - They almost ALL want to come back to the family. Odds are way in your favor. And Plan B will protect your precious little heart in the meantime.

Be careful of the "holiday" reconciling though. I believe Meremortal has a thread around here regarding WSs wanting to come back for the holidays to get their fix of you and the comforts of family and home and then splitting afterwards.

You might want to check out that thread.


Husband was unfaithful to me before and after our marriage, at least 7 times. I found out 13 yrs into the marriage. Trickle truth for an entire year. Several different d-days, so it was more like a d-year. Difficult recovery.

Thanks believer!!

It definitely needed protecting. It was getting REALLY close there!!!!!

He spent a lot of time with DS25 today and that's a good thing, too!!!

I was still at DIL & DS25's when DS25 came in. He said that Mr. Gray did not get the mail off of the door. He had taken some of it but not the check he needed for his glasses from the vision place.

I asked DS25 saw him reading a letter and DS said he didn't see any letters. So that means it was read or will be read in private. I thought as much.

He probably won't try to contact me but I imagine on Monday my poor Doberman is going to be lambasted by Mr. Mudd. I'll have to warn him. Forewarned is fore armed, eh?

Well, I did already tell him what I was going to do this weekend so he knows about that. But he thought Mr. Gray was going to get the personal stuff completely out of here. So...............uh oh!!! LOL!

Thanks, mopey.

I was thinking about that thread earlier.

He USED to love to shop for me. I don't know about now. But if he does I guess I'll have to forward it to Mel! LOL!

Mel.............LOL that was SO funny earlier!!

We were REALLY ROTFLMAO about that intermediary thing!!

I was giggling about that nearly the whole time I was driving around in BFE!!!!!!!!

Hi mimi!!!

LMAO!!!!!

You cracked me up, there!!

My Doberman is my attorney. It's his method in court that earned him the nickname. Just like a Doberman when a burglar breaks in...or TRIES to, rather...thinking they are alone....when little do they know...there's a Doberman who slips silently up beside them...then....

WHAMMO!! Got 'em by the throat!!!

We had two really great Dobies growing up and we got to see them in action!

Now I want another one...oh wait, I already have one! LOL!

No really, I have been thinking about it a lot. Our dog lives with my mom and grandma now. I was thinking about adopting, though, so I don't know what to do. I'd LOVE to have a Dobie again! They are SO great!!

BFE-term used for anyplace out in the boonies...stands for "Bum F'd Egypt." I don't know where this term originated or anything. Or why, even. It has no rhyme or reason. I guess it's just fun to say. I never really gave it a lot of thought...it just seems like a good description for desolate landscape. Maybe that's why? Because of the desolate landscape in Egypt? I don't know. Well, looks like it's time for some research!!

Thanks, mimi!!! Sorry this ended up being so long...my fingers are still excited, I guess!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I moved my H's clothes to the new house that he eventually moved into with me.

Wow, so he never got them at all until ya'll were back together?

I was reading your story the other day but I didn't finish. I knew about the furniture thing. I had to stop because I had to leave but I want to go back and finish.

Very inspiring!!!!

And when you wanted to call him so bad...I was already feelin' that tonight!! LOL!!

Managed to quash it, though! Thank goodness!

I found it in the Urban Dictionary, yes, to desolate area but no to origin.

So I looked some more and a slang site said the origin is possibly military.

Nope! I think he's given most of those clothes away by now.

He's bought almost all new clothes..like he's trying to wipe the slate from that old life..

He's looking at DREAM GIRLS now..that's why I'm on here..that music is depressing to me..

That's a good idea!

Dream Girls? Is that one of those reality shows? I think I've heard of it but I'm not sure. About the only reality shows I watch are Dirty Jobs (LOL!!) (Well I don't know if that one counts, but it should!) and I've seen Intervention a few times.

Bummer. Does this mean that you can't accept any gifts from Jonesy now? I don't mean to be depressing but I guess it's a good question for plan B'ers. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />


Husband was unfaithful to me before and after our marriage, at least 7 times. I found out 13 yrs into the marriage. Trickle truth for an entire year. Several different d-days, so it was more like a d-year. Difficult recovery.

I've heard that it's a no-no, so I guess not. Just as well. He'll probably get me a sack of coal anyway now!! LOL!

Hey Charlotte - Isn't Mel going to be your intermediary? She can just keep them for you until Jonesy comes back, then you can open them then! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Going to lunch, then I have a meeting... I'll check back later...

Semper Fi,
