He has been gone a week and two days. Has already been back twice to "pick up some things". The last time he only took a few clothes--old things he never wore. <P>We are in contact, mainly by e-mail. He misses our daughter terribly and wants to spend a day with her soon. But I'm not ready to let her go out the door with him yet. So, I invited him to dinner this weekend and/or to spend a day together on an outing with our daughter. He has accepted the dinner invite--am still waiting to hear about the outing. He is probably checking with the OW---(I believe he is living there but won't admit to it). I hope so! Let us see how she reacts when he wants to come visit!<P>Was this a dumb move? Am having second thoughts about the invitation now. When he leaves I feel like I'm back to square one---miserable....

I'm assuming you're in Plan A. Invite away. Enjoy being with him, be enjoyable to be with. Be his family. She can't do that.<P>Good luck.

Thanks! I'll need it!<BR>Didn't think I could do Plan A yet but he keeps contacting me for some reason or other. So I may as well be nice, I guess. For my daughter's sake. I don't know at this time if that's my only reason or not...
