How do I know after all that's happened? Well, here's a story. I went out with a girlfriend a couple of weeks ago. We went to a club, and I was looking pretty good (since my H left home in March, I've lost 57 pounds, gotten contacts, started wearing make-up, etc.). Now, I am NOT out looking for a new relationship, but I just wanted to have some fun and dance. Well, a really cute guy was checking me out all evening. He finally got up the courage to ask me to dance towards the end of the night. He was flattering me to NO END. He was also asking me my life story. I told him about my H and that we were separated, but that I still hoped to work things out. I talked to him about my children (twin girls, 15 and a son, 17). He said there was NO WAY I was the mother of twins (too tiny)! ANYWAY, the point to my story is this: while I enjoyed the ego boost, all I could think of while dancing with this fellow, was that HE WASN'T MY HUSBAND! I wanted it to be my HUSBAND....<P>I will not go dancing again, unless it is with my HUSBAND...<P>Of course, if my H decides after all of this that divorce is the only answer, then someday, I may try dancing again, but until and unless that time comes, all my dances are saved for my HUSBAND!

Thanks BTDT. I appreciate the response. Sometimes I feel as if some of my posts get "lost in the mail." I know there are other, more important needs out there, I just wanted to share a good thing. <P>Thanks again,<BR>MOM
