We went out last night and things went very well. There were a couple of small LBs during dinner (I have to learn to close my mouth sometimes). We were supposed to leave early so he could pick up OW by 10pm. Well, we were still out having a GREAT time until 10:20 and he still had to drop me off. If he was lucky he could make it to her by 11:30. To make things even better, she got off of work early and was waiting for him at 9pm! So while he was on the phone trying to cover his tracks with her I was a foot away from him. Amazing, the lies he was telling her were very similar to the ones he used to tell me. I was actually smiling the whole time. She was VERY upset he was so late and I could tell he was stressed because of it. Oh well. I'll just let her do her own LBing thank you. <P>A couple of quick notes. During dinner we talked about a number of things. One of those was that he honestly admitted he didn't know what he was going to do. It gave me a lot of hope because I know he is not totally against us working it out. Now a sad note - he is taking her to a concert on Thursday and his boss and his wife will be going with them. I haven't even met his boss. I was NOT happy about this turn of events. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] I guess there's no sense in crying about it since there's nothing I can do. Anything I do will be an LB.<P>As for today. He is with her now but she works at 4pm. He'll be coming to see me after that and will be spending the rest of the day with me and family. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>Have a GREAT day everyone!! I know I will!<P> <P><P>------------------<BR>Molli<P>Find your strength within!

Very cool Molli.<P>I don't know how you do it ... I'd have to be on Xanax not to LB at all. Esp when he was on the phone w/her right in front of you, AND lying his pants off. Does it bug you that he has switched the order and now you're treated as the OW?<P>You're headed in the right direction, hun. I'm praying you are our next success story. So keep posting so we can see step-by-step how one of us can truly get there.<P>God Bless and keep up the good work!<P>Best,<BR>Jo

Lostva - <BR>Thanks, again! Encouragement is always needed.<P>Jo - <BR>I hope that this will be a success story just as much as anyone (more so). Does it bug me that the order has been switched? Not really. I know I had the upper hand before. I mean I know him better than anyone. But now, it's different. I feel I still have the upper hand AND the inside scoop. I have more tools to use while she has nothing. So I am using everything I have and everything I get to the best possible advantage. <P>I will keep posting my progress and, with a lot of hard work, prayers, and hope I just may be posting that success story in the future. Thanks for the words of encouragement!!<P><P>------------------<BR>Molli<P>Find your strength within!
