Hi All.

http://www.marriagebuilders.com/ubb...in=155203&Number=2198865#Post2198865

My story and posts are above, but I need some help getting through today.

I think we just ran into OW at Lunch today out with our kids. We were walking in the restaurant and as we came around the corner a group of women were sitting at the booth directly behind where they were sitting us. My husband and this woman locked eyes, I also had a recognition there as I've seen pictures of her on her online social network site. I have never seen her in person, this is why I have myself second guessing myself. I came home and logged in to look at her picture again...and I swear it was her. He of course said, What?!? and I said, do you wanna leave? he said, 'he said no why?!?' I just sat there looking at him and he just started shaking his head at me. He said, 'I see, where your mind is at and nothing I do will help'. He got me second guessing myself and before I could react to much, the women got up and left about 5 minutes after we got there.

Then my H and I had a big blow out and talked, then I came home and got a phone call from a private number that hung up after 9 seconds after I answer.

what do you guys think...am I crazy...

Than when I got home

I would beat the hell out of OM if that happened to me, and I even dumped/divorced my xw. I knew once she told me, I could NEVER get passed it, no way, not in this lifetime. I wish you all the luck in the world.

When my H finally (after 13 YEARS of gaslighting) admitted to a ONS, he still didn't want to give me the woman's name.

I told him, "I had better NEVER find out that I've been out somewhere and been chatting nicely with some skank who is sitting there and thinking, "I boinked your husband."

He then said, "You won't. She's dead."

I then said, "So, you're protecting a DEAD skank over ME?"

That's when he told me her name.

But, he has never told me the whole truth, although I pretty much have a lot of it figured out.

DO snoop!

You can also ask your husband to take a lie detector test.

It sure sounds fishy. I think more checking is in order.

Do you have any info on the OW at all besides her picture?

Good chance it was the OW and of course it sends them diving for cover.

I WORK with the OW and MY H. How is that. I do not see the OW much but when I do I want to jump the desk and choke her.

But don't worry "I don't get mad I will get even"..soon very soon

I had to take another look at your subject line. Thought it said "I think we just ran OVER her (OW) at lunch." Wow -- wouldn't that have been exciting?

Of course, you would have had to back up over her again to check to see if you had really ran over her (hee, hee). Then you would have had to drive forward again to move out of the way for the paramedics.

And you would have been the hero of BW's everywhere!

Didn't something like that really happen, the wife either ran over the H or OW and kept circling back to run over them a few more times on the pretense that she felt she hit something...

There have been a few BWs that ran over their WHs multiple times. One even parked the car on top of the WH after. whistle

Yeah, that happened in my neighborhood, at the Hilton on Clear Lake. The wife was partners with a neighbor on my street, and she ended up having to close their dental office. The wife (the dentist) caught them at the hotel and waited for her H to come out, and proceeded to run over him...a few times.

We also are the neighborhood with the woman who drowned her 5 kids. I knew her husband. No one will verify it, but IMO he was abusing her, and she got to that learned helplessness state and could find no way away from him except death.

Also the area with the mother of the cheerleader who tried to run a hit on another cheerleader to get her daughter on the squad.

And the guy who poisoned his son's Pixie Sticks on Halloween to get the insurance.

Must be something in the water...
