Again I am new in here, and have been reading allthe posts. I posted my story earlier. Where do you go to learn all the MM OW meanings?? AND please whaT is D Day and LB?? Thank you.

hi mainemade,<BR>I know all the abbreviations get confusing!! To find out what most of them are, go to the Infidelity discussion forum called "Just Found Out." There is a posting there entitled "Acronyms, Smilies and UBB Codes." Read that, and you will learn most of the abbreviations.<P>You should explore other parts of the site, especially Harley's "Basic Concepts," or even order some of his books. They will explain all this to you in detail.<P>That said, some of the more common ones you will see are:<P>WS--Wayward Spouse--the spouse having the affair<BR>BS-Betrayed Spouse--spouse who was cheated on<BR>OM--"Other Man"--wife's affair partner<BR>OW--"Other Woman"<BR>OP--"Other Person"--sometimes used instead of OW or OM<BR>EN's--Emotional Needs<BR>LB's--"Love Busters" actions or words that withdraw "Love Units from your spouse's "Love Bank."<P>I could keep going, but go to the other thread for the full explainations!! Good luck to you and keep posting!<P>Calla

One more thing..."D-Day" is generally the day that the affair was discovered or revealed to the betrayed spouse.
