Romantic and mercurial Pisces here. A water sign. Totally hetero, love men. Sweet and dreamy that can turn on a dime and make Scarlett O'Hara look subdued. Kind of an edgy (and angry) compliant co-dependency thing going on here.<P>Spouse is Aries (the Ram), a fire sign. The tendency here is to control, manipulate and barrel (ram) ahead without checking the consequences. Together we make steam.<P>Catnip =^^=<P>PS Libra's make for great balance...diplomacy and fairness. Maybe you should run for office, Gregg.<p>[This message has been edited by catnip (edited November 19, 2000).]

Catnip,<P> You seem to know a lot about this astrology thing. MY wife is a Capricorn.<BR>In the Chinese Zodiac( it's on a placemat I brought home with pork lo mein), I am the horse and my wife is the dog, we're supposed to be a good match.(dog and horse, paints an interesting mental image!)<BR> Thanks for the endorsement for office, but I'm too thin skinned and have way, way, way too many skeletons in my closet(I have an extra room to hold all of them)<P> God bless you, <P>------------------<BR><P>Gregg

Hahahaha. Gregg, the mental picture was too much.<P>Capricorn women...hmmmm, I don't know much about them. I did have a former husband that is a Capricorn. He was so handsome and charming and a real scoundrel. He was very sweet, though. <P>Gregg, don't you know that the new mindset for government office is to have a LOT of skeletons? It has become a prerequisite for sure. The drivel from the last eight years have had the pundits try to tell us that these skeletons made our Philaderer in Chief more 'human'. Now half the country is having "Gore-basms" over this dork who may be our new president who will tax the crapola out of all of us and provide silly new programs we don't want or need. He has no personal skeletons but his antics with the Chinese and the monks and other questionable (election fraud) dealings will come up as unethical at the very least. Then we have Bush and his DUI and alcohol problems and some shady deal in Colorado having to do with the banks...so you decide, Gregg. I think anyone of us are now qualified for office...the more skeletons the better. hahaha<P>Catnip =^^=

Hi guys, <BR> <BR> I am so down. I taped some of my wifes' telephone conversations, because my wife is very secretive when OM calls. They call each other "baby", they tell each other that they love each other. I knew this was happening, I just didn't want to believe it. <P> I am so lost <P>------------------<BR><P>Gregg

Hi Lynton,<BR>I am a stubborn, manipulative Aries! I thought this was a fun thread and then I read your last post and I was disgusted. Your wife is in a world all her own. She is obviously not putting her all in making this marriage work, she can't be if she is still involved with the OM. IMO perhaps it is time for Plan B. Your wife is being 100% selfish by not being honest with you and in not trying to make her marriage work for all of her children. Her priorities are all wrong and she needs to realize that these little conversations, visits and calling him baby has to end pronto. OOOOH she makes me so mad. Lynton I am sincerely so sorry because it seems as if this whole affair has not ended. When you are a little calmer and a little less emotional, you need to have a conversation with your wife. Ask her for complete honesty regarding this OM. The games have to stop Lynton. You will be in my prayers. God bless. Sending you hugs.

Lynton,<P>I'm an earthy, practical and realistic Virgo. I'm so sorry about your recent discovery with your wife. It's very obvious that she is not committed to your marriage at this time. Secretive conversations with the OM and terms of affection such as "baby" does not sound as though the affair is over. She can't have it both ways. She has to make a choice, either you or him. Which side of the fence is she on? IMO, If it was my H, I couldn't live with the not knowing what choice he's going to make and having to live with the knowledge that he's still in contact with OW AND calling her "baby" . Not to mention telling her that HE LOVES HER! That's too much! Like LeeLee, I'm so angry that she's putting you though this. It's been so difficult as it is. I'll keep you in my prayers. <P>Comfort<P>------------------<BR>Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending...

This takes precedence over having a 'fun' thread, Gregg. Your new revelation is far more important.<P>Have you said anything to your Wife about what you have discovered? <P>Gregg, remember she isn't thinking with a clear head, has a lot of confusion and her reality is not anyone else's reality right now. Plan B is a risk, but, done correctly, can be very effective. In Plan B, your Wife could realize how awful life would be without you in it.<P>You're in my prayers, Gregg. Stay strong.<P>Catnip =^^=

Hey Dudes!!! I am an Aries and my husband is a Taurus. The ram and the bull, what does that mean? <P>Now, to what has happened, and I won't go on about it as I tend to do. I agree that your wife needs to make the decision now!! This is going on too long to be healthy for you, your kids, or the marriage!!! I know that the decision was made easy for me, cause I know now that I never really loved OM, and he also showed his true self to me. Heck, even my kids don't like to mention his name, and they don't know everything that happened, even though our 8 yr old D wittnessed the assault on my H by the jerk (our meaning my H and me) Some day the kids will know most everything, but at this time, OM is just one of the biggest jerks on this earth. I do know that if he did know that I was pregnant, he wouldn't leave us alone, at least till we sued for cs that is. I pray that it never comes to that. OOPS, I rambled again. Anyway, your wife needs to decide, not straddle the fence. And hopefully it doesn't take plan b for her to realize what a truly wonderful man she has that loves her with everything he has. Why else would you still be trying so hard, and have this affect you so badly? You are in our prayers.<P><BR>Tigger

I'm a Sagitarius, tend to make my lovers enemies. Boy is that the truth. H is a Taurus, says we're better off as friends (astrologists, not H). I say who better to marry than a friend.<P>Lynton, <P>I'm so sorry your wife has not come back to Earth yet. That had to have been absolutely devastating for you to hear those things. <P>I agree that it is time for your wife to get off the fence. If she still thinks she is in love with OM, then she needs to stop breaking your heart day in and day out. Does she not realize that if OM loved her and Angel so darned much that he would move heaven and earth to be with them? She's been given a beautiful gift, and she doesn't see it. I don't know many men (or women) who would be willing not only to fogive an affair, but to accept another child that is not their own. You, and all the children, deserve so much more.
