I'm not sure how I will feel about it. The kids will be with x from Fri nite till Sun nite so I won't have them.<P>I'm not sure if I should tell my lady friend about it or not. I hate to bring up subject of x. I don't want to sound like I'm harboring thoughts (other than nasty) about her. Lady friend has been good about it too as she has one from 5 yrs ago.<P>We have plans for Fri nite, not sure about Sat or Sun. I really don't think it will bother me. Besides I have tons of work to do around the house and for my job.

Hi RWD,<P>As a female I probably would not want to know. Again that is just me. Do you feel sad about it or just oh yeah my anniversary? <P> <P>

It is oh yeah, this would have been my anniversary. Last year at this time we were just starting to reconcile(for the 3rd time)which only lasted till early Nov. So its not a sad feeling at all.

RWD:<BR>As you know,I just signed my divorce on my anniversary this past Tuesday. Actually, that 'crummy' day wasn't as bad as I thought. I found that the stress and anxiety leading up to it was worse.<P>I agree that you should share your feelings with your lady friend. Maybe she can help you through it.<P>------------------<BR>JH93

I probably would have mentioned it. I meant to post earlier. Sorry I missed I'm so late. <P>X and I married on Valentine's day. Big Mistake. But, I have a friend who's husband died of AIDS and they had also married on Val. Day. Therefore, she and I have standing date for that day. I know what people are bound to think. Two nicely dressed women in a nice restaurant on Valentine's Day. Who cares. I now look at my anniversary as a day of celebration of growth and survival.

The day passed without event. I didn't mention to my friend as we didn't get together yesterday. I was busy around the house and never even thought of it.
