My husband is having a email, "friendship" affair.When he cant talk to her,he talks to her teenage son.He refuses to get off of ICQ.He says if he stops talking to her it will just be someone else.(he has made many phone calls to this ow,and flew to her state to visit her).Lovebusting for him is when I ask him to stop communicating with her.I am so insecure about are relationship , I keep asking him what are future is,(another lovebuster.This weekend we are going overnight to a motel.PLease pray for me that I will not do any lovebusting ever again. Sometimes I feel hopeless because I am trying to meet H emotional needs so hard,yet "Surviving a Divorce" says he may not feel this because he is emotionally envolved with ow.My prayers are with you all.Bethn<P>------------------<BR>
