Hi ya doin Buffy,<P>I've thought about you for the last three days!<BR>My H has been in Texas on a business trip. I know you are in Texas, but I don't know where.<P>He was in Austin, picked him up from the airport about 11:45pm est.tonight. He had a good time there. He had dinner one night at a place called the Beef Barn in Temple, Texas. Last night they all went to some C/W dance club!<P>I saw that you replied to firestorm's post to Peppermint... was that not the most awesome post you have ever read? It was so beautifully written and sounded so sincere.<P>I, personally have never gotten a love letter from my h or any man for that matter. If I were Pepp., I'd be on top of the world (or him) right now! I think he is truly sorry for what he has done to thier marriage and the struggles he has put them through.<P>I definitely think they will make it! <P>Do you remember the no-contact letter issue I had with my H.? I gave him a written critique of what I thought about his letter to her... he didn't respond to me about it, after five days, I asked him why he hadn't responded and he said it was so professionally written that he was amazed and didn't know what to say about it. See, you people have really helped me!!!<P>Anyway, he said he would rewrite her the letter, but he feels like it is pretty much useless, because she has gone on with her life and does not want him in it. But still, I want him to do it just to satisfy my soul. Do you blame me?<P>I was hoping, if you had been close enough to my H while he was in Tex. that you could scope him out... Maybe next time!!!<P>I hope all is well with you. Please write me back. You can e-mail me if you'd like. Baboom48cpt@aol.com<P>Bye for now, <BR>Cathy

Hi Cathy:<P>Girl, do you know how big Texas is...it's like three or four states all rolled into one. Austin's about a 6 hour drive from East Texas where I live.<P>Hey, I thought I was the only nightowl. I must have gone to bed shortly before you wrote this.<P>Yes, Firestorm's post was beautiful and in my heart I "know" my H would say the same if his head wasn't "foggy" right now (LOL). No, just like you I let the ones who wrote "love letters" get away. So young I thought that they were sappy...no, I needed someone to ignore me...I suppose. Settled for the "strong silent" type...only he wasn't so strong and at times wasn't so silent.<P>I'm glad your H's reaction to your critique of his letter was so positive...I thought it might have made him made enough that he decided not to send it. I'd get him to send it anyway, because I'm not as convinced that she's given up all interest as he is.<P>Funny thing happened today...I think I'll make a topic out of it. Check it out.<P>Buffy & Faye<BR> <BR>P.S. By the way, my cat, who I raised from a kitten, is black so I called her Buffy the Vampire Killer...hence the handle....but I'm still cute as all get out. <P> <P><p>[This message has been edited by buffy (edited September 23, 2000).]
